Another Trip.
Another day another trip, this month has been good for them.
And as the oold saying goes, "Make hay while the sun shines." because we all know that these trip will soon dry up. (Though I hope not.) The view from Minlaton mobile phone site. Nice. You can see where the farmers are cropping. They mainly are barley or peas. The peas are not the eating kind but some sort of legume, nitrogen fixating plants, ie good for the soil when not leaving a field fallow. (Crop rotation policy)
I know some of this from the cocky we talked to about the job we will be doing out there, but also from geography classes in school. Hey, that means I was paying attention. Wow learn some thing new every day.
A cast of hundreds watching me take photos. Not a great shot. But the sun ment I could not see through the view finder. So I took a guess. They are sheep, if you can't tell. Funny animals, very heard orientated.
And this is the photo they watched me take. This was a good looking valley. The picture does it no justice.
Ah salt bush (I think)
Mmmm.... Barley, pretty with the Flinders Rangers in the back ground. (Very southern end of the rangers)
And this is one of the site we visited on the day. Not mutch to look at thought, even if about 50gig of data goes through here every second.
