Lets keep pushing ahead ... westwards now !

I ended up flying a short flight out of St george in the evening at about 5:30pm and landing a couple of hrs later about 70km away . Stopping in the middle of nowhere. Spent the night on the side of the road and all the next day storms and wind and rain , eat, sleep and read and wached a movie on the laptop .
Group meeting went well the day before got some stuff ironed out and now have communication with the truck and ground crew , Bought a radio and base unit !
I feel a bit more secure now I know I can talk with the guys and they know where I am . It's the 27th today . Short morning flight after the rain and wind eased a bit flew into Bollon and landed 10km outside .. getting windy again and up to 20-30km hr cross .
Forcast is looking better now for the following days, group spirts are up , coffee food and out of the mud . Showers and washing and stocking up on supplies , hope to make a run for Cunnamulla this evening if all goes well . wind to the east of us are 25-35km hr ... well have to wait and see . cheers
