A quiet start to a Sunday morning at Lake Tinaroo except for an intoxicated moron walking around asking "Is any one there?" He was bogged and was after a tow rope. Unluckily for him I only have snatch straps so he was told no. Some one else told him it was Sunday and not to bother people at this hour. Apparently, he ran off the road and as we learned later, put a hole in his car sump and being so stupid drove it until it seized from lack of oil. Takes all types.
We had other entertainment when another unrelated camper managed to jack knife his Toyota Hilux and boat trailer after trying to turn up a greasy damp slope. He had to be winched straight by one of our group as he had no recovery gear.
Most of the day was chatting under cover with various Kimberley Karavan owners. A lovely group of people and we all have our Karavans in common. Sadly, some had to leave to return home to Cairns while some others were moving onto another destination.
So our get together is winding down and all going on their various ways tomorrow. There are still four of us here. So further chats have followed after dark.
If you ever have the opportunity, I suggest you visit this lovely area on Lake Tinaroo.
Tomoorow I move onto Cairns for part of the week and where I will meet up with some other KK owners who are also bound for Cape York.

Lake Tinaroo does look a gorgeous spot, it's a pity not many people discover that part of the Atherton Tablelands.
The inclement weather caused a couple of casualties but grog did more damage than the weather in the case of one.
