As we were packing up this morning the guy in the van next door decided to hose his van down. He did tell us he was going to do it and to keep an eye on him in case he accidentally sprayed us. The water turned red from the dirt and was running off the van. I felt a few sprays but as it was warm wasn't a problem until I turned to look at Ian, in his light blue t-shirt which had splashes of red on it. Hope it washes out.
We are heading towards Longreach and were going to stay at Windorah but everyone we spoke to suggested we stay a few kms south of town at a free camp on Cooper Creek. There are places for a few vans near the toilet, then the rest of the camp area is in surrounding bushland. We crossed a dry creek bed and parked about 200 metres from the toilet and other vans. We have noticed camper trailers further away. Very quiet. I had done a load of washing prior to leaving this morning and hung it out at about 12.30pm when we had set up here. Currently 2pm and everything is dry. Was meant to be about 28 degrees today but there is a lovely breeze blowing. Going to put the feet up enjoy the tranquility and do some reading. Once again no phone, internet or television. Very peaceful evening. Ian went out to try some night sky time lapse pictures.
