Hi everyone. We've left home and are full time now. Been on the road a few days and got a couple pics. Taken about half hour apart. Got to say it's beautiful here so will stay put for a bit. Joe and Co.

Every year round the end of February-beginning of March for about 4 weeks we get those blasted biting march flies. This happens when the Tuart and Gum trees blossom without fail, every year.
