After a few days on the road, we arrived at Morisset and set up at the Showgrounds.  This would be our base for a few days while working on De Trailer, catching up with Brad and Vicki and finally loading up to head to our very first show in Busselton Continue Reading

Our last blog left us heading to South Australia, specifically the small town near Mt Barker of Flaxley.  Here we were to become the proud owners of a trailer, ex horse float actually.  Our family has grown and we now travel with De Trucksta happily towing De Trailer.  Gotta keep Continue Reading

We were back on the dirt roads, our favourite, and our next stop was Mutawintji National Park.  We stayed at the Homestead Camping Ground and it had a great vibe about it.  Serene and relaxed, the biggest thing we had to worry about was what walk will we do.  We Continue Reading
