Here are some pics of our home on wheels.

We live in it full time and started in Qld and am presently in Perth.

 

Cheers

Frank

The last one is of us being VERY bogged near Meekatharra.

Most impressive interior - very home sweet homely. Good thing you're fit enough to dig your way out of that bog.

Have had a few changes for the get together,  see forum thread:  http://thegreynomads.activeboard.com/t56404978/wa-gtg-now-popanyinning-pumphreys-bridge-fri-31st-jan-sat-su/  Apparently, Yornaning Dam is no longer open for overnight stays.

Some of the GNs are going to Popanyinning, but as we cant get away until afternoon 2nd Feb, we are going to Pumphries Bridge - all mentioned in the thread.

Are you planning on joining us?
