Nature says it's time to go........ The green tumbleweeds have turned brown and are preparing to roll away. They have been plumper and more plentiful than ever, this year. There are so many paddocks that haven't been watered, due to the drought, and the tumbleweed has really taken hold in the bare ground.
When the time is right, they break free from the earth and start rolling in the wind.
They blow along in groups, reminding me of a bunch of lemmings making the death rush! When they reach a fence or bridge, they pile up on top of each other. I hear them screaming, "Me first, me first."
Steve has been busy making more cupboards in the van (and making more sawdust to clean up, but who's complaining??)
The toilet has been shifted into the shower room and the old toilet room is becoming a wardrobe. There will be a breakfast bar where we planned to put the wardrobe. I think. Originally, Steve thought that the plans he drew up were fixed. Then I looked at them!! This 5th wheeler will probably be a work in progress for the rest of its life.
There's a big pile of "stuff" in the house, ready to be transferred to the van. The weather has cooled off and we've had to light a fire so our departure is imminent. As far as I can recall, we left on Mothers' Day last year. It's quite likely that we'll do likewise this year.
