A long day

Stalking ... something!

Vaughan was very sad that Nick left with Peter - instead of us all traveling down to Bourke in Elmer Fudd and meeting Nissa off the bus (stopping overnight at Byrock) as originally planned.

Erin and I did our best to distract him.  We created a "Welcome Back" sign and decorated the front door in readiness for the weary travelers' return (though they were not expected until 11pm or so that night).

It was an incredibly hot day and remained so late into the night when Nick and Peter returned with Nissa. All were stiff, sore and very tired but pleased with the success of the trip as they collected Nissa without incident (flooding en route had been a concern) and had managed to acquire the necessary parts for Elmer's repair! Hooray!
