Silverton, 24k out of Broken Hill. It's not what we expected, may as well have stayed roadside except we have electricity for when we want the heater this evening. It's a stunner of a day and the flies make outside sitting unpleasant. TV impossible, phone is patchy but we are self contained so very fortunate. Quite a bit more live stock, Sherman, some cattle, goats and quite a lot of 'road kill' kangaroos. We have hardly seen any live ones on this whole trip but down south particularly, a lot of dead ones. Saw also a number of Emus also today.
The road side today reminded me of 13 years ago when Christy, 5yr old Mark & I drove to Newcastle for them to join Jamie who had gone there to work. That trip was a blaze of colour.
It's 'Patersons Curse' a poisonous weed for cattle I believe. BUT it so beautiful.
P.S. Where you have read Sherman, it should be 'some sheep' ........I won't dare to correct it!
