Then to "Taste of Tassie" [from today till the 2/1] 100's people [tour ship in too] choice wines to sample, food to buy [love Tassie food & wine].

Happy New Year to all. I'm attempting to put up two photos. One taken in June 13 at the Tip of Cape York. The other taken Yesterday at Cockle Creek The most Southerly point [end of road] in Australia [Tassie]. Both times in the company of Bob & Lorraine Voss. Arrived at Cockle Creek yesterday from Hobart, lunch fresh cooked Crayfish, dinner Abolone [fresh caught]. Watched Satellites every nine minutes till midnight beside a roaring fire [in a 44 gal drum]. Today went fishing Pulled the pots only 2 legal crays the rest back in. then we caught 4 nice flathead [not me], came home and they donated the fish to me. Going again tomorrow.
Forget the photos
