2nd September 2014 Ringers Rest

Last night was one of the best sleeps I have had in a long time, not a sound anywhere except for the occasional call of the curlew, lovely clear night, but no wear near as cold as it has been, beautiful clear sky with stars that go forever.
We were woken to the sound of hot air balloons, I raced outside, they were so low I thought they were going to land in the paddock, what a glorious colorful sight.
The cattle were up at the fence waiting for scraps and a scratch, so I had to give some a bit of bread, there was too many to give them all some.
The horses were roaming about very close, one in particular loves to come up to the camp, he has put his nose in people's caravans to try to get their fruit,  he is very gentle and cute.
Merv and I went down to the river for a look, very nice, then later in the day another lady, myself and a young girl all went for a swim, very refreshing.
In the afternoon Merv and I took a couple of golf balls out into the paddock for a bit of practice.
Merv got out the chainsaw and cut up some of the dry wood that was near the fire into logs that could be handled, I got the fire going so there would be good coals to cook with the camp oven.
It was a another very pleasant night near the fire with a beer listening to more stories of Daves past.
A great restful day.
