An Amazing Day ..


 

.. I arrived quite early today at Broke (in NSW)  .. whilst idling away the hours a lady I had previously met at Mareeba arrived unannounced and parked up nearby ..

An hour or so later one by (GN) name of LOKI pulls up across from me also .. Another GN happy hour was soon too start !

Colleen,  Loki and myself were priveleged to share the evening with another guy by name of Doug Johns who was also parked up nearby in his campervan ..

Now .. it would not surprise me if some amongst you would already be familiar with this gent ..

Doug Johns is now 93 years of age and travelling on his own as his loving wife of 67 years passed away about (2) months ago .. A most remarkable man indeed !

Was great to meet Loki .. safe travels on your steps now to heading back to Tassie ..

cheers Doug! .. bye Colleen !

Jon

Glad you had a good day Jon. Always great to meet other GN's on your travels.

Is Doug Johns a member here? would like to know more about him. Bet he has some good stories to tell.
Hope your travelling well, have you had those repairs done to the m.home yet. (haven't pranged the plane have you?)

Catch you next time you pass this way.
