Today was an even earlier start, Potts was awake at 3.30 so we were packed up and away by 4am. We were in Miles before 5am and we called into two 24 hour truck stops to find neither of them have real coffee (only instant) , but we did get fresh water, our water had spent too much time in the sun and didn’t taste the best. Both Potts and myself were suffering from mild shin splints, Potts made worse by the extra weight of his backpack. After a couple of hours we decided to put the pack onto Roxy and Potts made a sling out of the peace flag to carry Bindi on his back, she looked so cute and very happy. At about 9am Paul (who was putting us up for the night) came along with his neighbor Phil to see how we were going. Bindi and the back pack went in the ute and Phil (68 yrs) walked with us. There were road works we had to negotiate and a one stage had to wait on the side of the road for 15 mins. A few klms on Paul joined us and much to Phil annoyance made him drive the ute, Phil said he was only just getting warmed up. What a lovely place to spend the night.Paul and Jenny have a grape farm. ”Kurrajong” and set us up in their workers cabin. Other neighbors will be over this evening to share a meal and stories.
Between us we made Bindi’s 2nd pair of shoes as the make do ones kept falling off. Paul produced and old pair of work gloves, the thumbs just fitted Bindi’s front paws and the large finger fitted the back paws. Almost instantly Bindi was running everywhere.
