Well we finally hooked up and departed the Bear Den at 12 noon today, headed north as we might try a visit to the Eyrie Peninsular.

Stopped about 20 klm south of Port Wakefield for lunch and now at Neishaby Reserve at the foot of the Flinders Ranges about 12 klm east of Port Pirie.

Molly has to work tomorrow so will try for a couple of hours driving in the afternoon. Certainly are a lot of worst places to have as your office for the day.

I was on the boats and barges building the jetty at Port Bonython or Stony Point as it was called before the name change. It took 13 months to build it.
