BEEstY
Can-Am F3S Daytona
After a good FarRide and Border Run across the paddock and back, I left Marge
Butters at Kimba so I could honour Kimba my old dog. I took her ashes up high above Kimba (the town) to get some photos and at a few other locations before heading east towards Port Augusta then down to Port Germain where I took Port Germain Pass across towards Murray Town (?) and went thru Wirrabara and stopped at the Silo Art site for a pic and to remove some layers.
While I was stopped there an ol' fella, Bob crossed the road towards us to lQQk at BEEstY. He had his ol dog with him and when I went down to pat her he said" she doesn't bite and her name is Kimba. Well I burst into tears and explained why to Bob telling him I have my 'Kimba's ashes in my topbox and spoke of our journey together both now and while she was alive.
Bob said I live over there, pointing at an old workshop and I said I was thinking of knocking on your door to ask if you'd have a nail or similar so I could fix the hinge on my topbox which had come out and was lost. Well Bob helped with a piece of stainless rod, and presto,, just like a bought one , all fixed. I rode on and stopped at Morgan at the motel Marge and I stayed on the way over.
Today I rode the Sturt Hwy across the Hay Plains, may as well keep up the monotony, finally on dusk stopping at Wagga Wagga as I was buggered and getting cold. Tomorrow I'll visit a friend before heading up the Hume to home. BEEstY hasn't missed a beat.
