I think he went straight out to Reg’s place. Plenty of ‘roos in the bush out there. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reg Wilson Posted May 10, 2019 Share Posted May 10, 2019 For your information Simon, Mitchel does not partake of alcohol. He has gone to Coiltek to check out some maps. The weather is very wet at the moment. The most rain for at least six months. Hopefully we may get to swing a coil tomorrow. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I understand those are the road kill roos. Oops, not to bring things down. The GPZ should do well in the rain. I think it is one of it's strengths. But then I don't have that rough of soil that you will be dealing with. I am really curious if you are going to be stuck in Difficult mode the whole time or not. Live it up, Mitchel!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mn90403 Posted May 10, 2019 Author Share Posted May 10, 2019 Andyy, I don't know if 'stuck' would be the right word. If I keep it smooth I'll be fine. As Reg said it has been wet and windy all day. Tomorrow I'm going out no matter what. I hope to have something to show. To back up just a bit, the flight was long and very strange because it was so quiet the entire time. There was no daylight for the first 12 hours until getting over the Australian coast. I had an aisle seat but if I had it to do over again I'd get a left hand window or right window seat. The plane parked a long distance from a gate and we took a bus and it was easy getting through customs with an electronic kiosk first and then a quick handoff to an agent. I got to the baggage claim and my bags were already there. A box with my detectors (without batteries) and my clothes/electric cords bag. My batteries were in a bag with my laptop and were not held up by TSA. Now I've been given some info and a general pointy finger and I ready to hunt some nuggets. If it is still too wet (if I have to stand in a puddle) then maybe I'll head to a beach. Mitchel 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mn90403 Posted May 11, 2019 Author Share Posted May 11, 2019 Well, I got some swings in today on a local practice location. I didn't have too much of a problem keeping it smooth but it is wet. Found normal trash but no keepers today. I'm on the move to drier locations tomorrow. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Northeast Posted May 11, 2019 Share Posted May 11, 2019 Best of luck on Sunday Mitchell. Sunday prayers in the Bush Church might help shine some light on the yellow ? On a different note, did you get a chance to get any Australiana souvenirs at the airport for Little Mitchell for when you go home? Is he about 12 months old now?
