In this issue we visit Keep River National Park, situated right on the WA/NT border.

I'd heard several times that it is a very underrated park and, having now been there, I agree. It's a marvellous place to visit and only a few kilometres off the highway.

So next time you're up that way do yourself a favour and spend a little time at Keep River.

Also, we find another gem, Marlgu Billabong in the Parry Lagoons Nature Reserve. Once again it's not far off the main drag, and once again it's a great place to spend some time. Especially if you're into birdwatching.

Temperatures
I quite often mention the temperature in the diary so thought I would explain what the figures mean in real terms.

We have a thermometer in the lounge room and that is what I use to obtain a temperature, therefore the figure I report is that of the inside of the truck.

We've found that, typically, the truck is 1-2 degrees warmer inside than the value reported by, say, the weather report of the day. When you consider that we don't park in the shade, because we need light for the solar panels, but directly in the burning sun, I think the truck is doing OK at stopping the heat.

Till next time then, and remember,

don't dream it, be it!
