The dog's owners, Ron, his wife Lisa, and their little boy Shane, were all very attached to Belker, and they were hoping for a miracle. I examined Belker and found he was...

Newman in the mighty Pilbara (as Lawsy once said), is a pretty good place. Mountains are spectacular. Still prefer the rugged ranges to the coast but I did glimpse for the first time, the Indian Ocean at Barn Hill on 80 mile beach. Good to see water again.

Many thanks to all for advice regarding a tow vehicle. Finally settled on one, a 2005 Series 100 diesel manual (4 Door) Landcruiser. The deciding factor(s) was that it came with Factory Bull Bar, Water Tank, Cargo Barrier and built in drawers and cupboards. It's an ex rental and a bit long in the Kms...
