We went to the Old Timer’s Mine. We had to wear hard hats as we explored the old mine.
Afterwards, we noodled for potch (low quality opal):
We drove to the Breakaways and drove along some of the Dog Fence. The fence is over 5600 km long!
This is the route we have taken so far:





Hard hats are so cool!
Did you find any opals?
Did you see any dingos along the dog fence?
Any other animals? Rabbits? Kangaroos? Emus? Camels?
I hope you are finding warmer weather. Here it has been very, very cold.
Hi Grandpa,
Yes we did find some opal. We did see a dingo in the middle of the road. We saw 4 Wedge Tailed Eagles and some Black Footed Rock Wallabies.
The weather is freezing at night and warm in the day.
Great to see your progress north on find a friend and your own website, have a fantastic time on your trip, ray.
