Pinjarra, Dwellingup


Decided to leave Yanchep last week and start south. Got as far as Dwellingup - the camp at Marrinup POW in amongst beautiful tall East Grey Gums (I think) that Alcoa has planted on their old mine site. Interesting getting in there on Grey Road. Had been wet and many pot-holes full of water. Then in to 4x4 to get up the water scoured track to the camp site. A few there including a very noisy mother who insisted on yelling at the kids and telling them not to get dirty!!!!! Hey - we are camping and it is raining and they were having a great time making a fire outside their tent etc.

Turned the computer on the next morning - and couldn't log in!!!! Ouch! Decided to go to Dwelling up and after chatting to the lovely ladies in the Info centre headed back to Pinjarra to the computer shop. A virus they said - and a bad one! Went back the next day to be told the hard drive had died which was a relief in a way, so spent 2 full days waiting for it to be repaired. Fortunately no-one seemed worried about me camping near the dump point for 3 nights. Was far too late on Friday to leave - rain - traffic!
Several campers there last night - local club on a mystery tour.
So - am back at Yanchep for 3 nights mainly as I have so much to re-set on the computer, and to download again. Seem to have lost a few activation codes which is most annoying. Also back to the osteo on Monday - hopefully the last tweak on my 'driving arm' problem.
Then on the road again......
