Real teeth breaking crackle on this chunk of roast pork

The bay calm as a mill pond, folks in Lincoln do not get to see the sunset over the water, and very few see the sun rise
Locals checking us out on our morning walk

Weather on the way, filled 2 x 20 ltr buckets of rainwater to supplement our water supply

Ashley out for a test drive in our Troopy, to the Salmon and Millers Hole. Bogged in a sand drift, tire full pressure and no diff's locked. Lowered tires to 30psi and diff's locked and drive out!

Morning walk find, soon to be a shed table!
Trail walk along the North shore
1st bush fire, got the alarm on the radio, out to Ashleys via Winter Hill, to check it's location. Ashely and Ali away in Adelaide.
Road block to Ashley's place, got thru okay.
Locate fire pump and connect sprinkler system and fire hose, Chook on the phone from the Riverland fruit packing sheds - turn off the choke, just fired up the pump.
All systems working, Tiff, came out to get stuff from the house.
Looks like it's next door - 12 building, house's and vehicles lost at Sleaford Mere
Cruise ship visiting Port Lincoln, in fact the same vessel Ashley and Ali did their Fiji cruise back in 2010. View from our block leaving!
This time we had our rod's, with the fish schools just out of reach until this rouge salmon found Ashley's lure.
Half way down the Millers Hole again and Anthony called, we are going out for a fish at Coffin's Bay. No fish schools in close, so headed to Coffin's bay - just in time to board the new Oyster vessel.
Now that's what you call relaxed fishing, a bit breezy,
so pull up in front of the sand hills. Very slow on the fishing, plus we had reservations at the Lincoln Hotel for one night.
Our 5th Wedding Anniversary at the Lincoln Hotel, no we did not order the $100 KING OYSTER
Sky lights now installed, sure made a big difference,
but the van solar will not fire-up. Oh! well, will use the trickle charger.

Detailing Chooks Nissan for SALE, removed the Clearview mirrors, and any other extra I could get off without depreciating the value.
Loading our tinnie, just scraps past, in-fact had to roll the vehicle a few inches just to make sure it clear the beam.
Off to Wangary - Farm Beach for a few days, to camp with Clarrie and Helen on Helen's brother's block.

Gallipoli cliffs and beach
Helen and Clarrie
Back to the beach to find my camera, yep! it fell out of my pouch when getting out of the tinnie. It's an Olympus Tough 820 hence water proof, for our lifestyle activities.
Now I can take the photo, this is when I found the camera missing 500 meters from the beach launch site
All parked up in the shed, Clarrie and Helen delivered our tinnie from Wangary. They are also packing and heading back west in a few days.
All done, our Bushtracker and vehicle parked up for the duration we are on HOLIDAY'S in Thailand.
Two weeks after the 1st Fire out towards Sleaford Mere, a 2nd fire North of the Duck Ponds
Local library updating and downloading e-mails - Ashley rang, this fire has our name on it!! As you will see ______
Wind changed and smoke over our block and blocked out the bay and Boston Island. With the wind change the Firies contained the fire on the rail line and Hyw. Next day viewing the fire from Winters Hill the fire had not run down as far as news / radio reports were indicating.
