We took two nights to reach Tom Price, both nights being
spent in really good roadside camps. The second night was at Beasley River roadside
stop which we reached by lunch time. We were the first to arrive and so had the
pick of the camp and settled in for an afternoon of sewing and reading.
Halfway through the afternoon Ian decided on a campfire
which was made possible by some kind person leaving some firewood behind. We also had tiger prawns brought from Exmouth
and to go with them Ian decided to make a very tasty damper and was able to
make use of our new firestand which hasn’t had any use on this trip as there
are no fires allowed in the National Parks.
As you can see from the pictures we were able to enjoy a
very happy evening with our friends the two doves who arrived during the
afternoon and decided to settle in and enjoy the sunshine. There were also a
large number of Major Mitchell Cockatoos who are taking on the dusty appearance
of the red dirt here. We have well and truly traded the sand from Exmouth for
the red dirt now.
