Then onto Cloncurry and stayed with Wendy and Brookster
Great time good to catch up with them both

Was great to have you all pass by...but you forgot to leave someone behind :whistle
One day you will wake up and there won't be anymore time to do the things you've always wanted so do them NOW!!!
Remember there are 7 days in a week and Someday isn't one of them!

Robyn and I left Darwin this morning at 7.00
Ddrove down to Katherine and did the gorge tour by boat which is so beautiful. I was here with my Dad 50 + years ago
Then we made a dash for Tennant Creek
Over 1,000km for the day but it was in a car
Tomorrow we head to Cloncurry for another night with Wendy and Brookster

Welcome home Leo and Robyn.  Sounds like you had a fantastic trip. Who said COVID has to spoil everyone’s plans?

You may be a little tired and fuzzy. Just be sure to feed the dogs and eat the chicken, not the other way around.
A man rides on his STeed, says “Why am I short of attention? Got a short little span of attention”.

You can call me Steve, with apologies to Paul Simon.
