"We knew it would be friendly but it is so different when you experience it"


Julie
Those following the blog would have read my post on the sheep day at Cawkers Well property near Wilcannia. I was fortunate enough to travel to the property again this week for the district Christmas Party. About 70 people turned up by plane and car, some travelling over 200km, to a fantastic evening by the pool. Fay and Charles are great hosts and everyone relaxed and enjoyed themselves.
During the evening both Fay and Charles commented how easy it was to make friends in the bush. They were amazed that having only been here 2 years they still knew most of the 70 people who had come.
About 30 stayed the night sleeping in swags around the garden, the house or in the shearer's quarters, so breakfast was another social event before everyone headed off and the planes took to the sky.
