On the Road Again Perth Odessey 2010

Day 36
10/9/2010
Jillah Rockhole
What a glorious day this has been, not doing very much drove from Domblegabby to Jillah Rockhole Rest Area, (31’50’294s  128’07’738e)  it is so nice here that should the weather continue to be kind to us we will stay again tomorrow, as we have only driven about 300k I think we deserve a rest.   This rest stop we would give as a 5 star plus rating, should the need arise there could be up to 100 campers, tonight, about 10.  There are a number of walks that can be taken utilizing the tracks within the camping area, and then of course you could should you so desire took foot across the hill to the actual Jillah Rockhole about a 15k round trip and no trail to follow.

We did catch a little rain about 10 minutes out of Jillah; we thought we were in for it, looking to our right over the Great Australian Bight you could see the stormy clouds dumping buckets of water on whoever was there at the time.  From our left these low clouds just slowly rolled on causing Sheryle to put on her wipers, as we pulled into the rest area and I stepped from the car to look for suitable accommodation it simply stopped allowing us to get down the back where there is ample fire wood and privacy.
We have no communication therefore no baby update, we will arrive home next Thursday in time for our Granddaughter Taylor’s 10th birthday, it is hard to believe she was 3 weeks old when we left for 3 years caravanning.  We are sorry we were not home to see her sing in her school choir at the Adelaide Town Hall 2 weeks ago, we are missing all our beautiful grandchildren and are looking forward to hugs and cuddles on our return.
Catch you tomorrow  
John & Sheryle
