Day 7. Bjelke Peterson Dam. 9.10.24

Today we send happy birthday wishes to 2 of our grandchildren, Issac who turns 20 and his sister Haylee who is very excited to finally be turning 10.

After a bit of rain, gusty winds and a sudden temperature drop overnight we packed up early and headed home to take care of a couple of things. We were home less than 2 hours before we departed again for Bjelke Peterson Dam. We are joining G&G and G&K for a couple of days. 

Stopped at the post office cafe in Woolooga and had a delicious toasted turkish bread sandwich for lunch. 

By sheer luck we were all arriving not far apart from each other. 
We have an unpowered site in amongst a few trees while the others have powered sites further down the hill.
The girls took the dogs for an afternoon walk while the boys chatted.
We were watching the storm come in from under G&Gs awning. Lots of thunder, lightning and rain.  Eventually we had to leave our chairs behind and borrow an umbrella ☔ and rain jackets from Gail and slosh home through flowing water. 

Today we travelled 269kms. Total so far 451 kms.
