Dinner has been had, the dishes washed and a neighbour chatted with, so here comes today’s blog.

As usual the day was started with a walk, nothing special to see and nowhere special go from the rv camp that I was in at Port Augusta. Then breakfast and chores and off to woolies for a bit of shopping.

Then on the road again with everything working properly, good. The drive today took me south in the general direction of Adelaide or a thousand other towns between Port Augusta and the Murray River. Actually Adelaide is almost due south and I am headin in a south, south easterly direction gradually moving away from Adelaide. The traffic was not as heavy here as it was on the Nullabor but there was still lots of traffic. The big difference is that most of it on these roads are small vehicles.

The after lunch I passed through the Ckare valley wine country, very impressive. In SA there are lots of old buildings, both houses and churches and big buildings. There are greater numbers than the other states that I have been to, but I not yet done Victoria or NSW. Most of the buildings are well preserved, some actually restored. I could spend all day taking thousands of photographs, instead I stopped at one small town and photographed almost all of the buildings.

After passing through the wine country I have camped at a place called Tarlee. It is a very, very small town but they have pan RV park on what is or was their football oval - very nice. I have 6 neighbours and unusually 3 of them are motorhomes.

I do not know if anybody reads my scribblings, so if you do feel free to comment and correct my errors.
