    What a great spot mate, you made the right choice to move, you’d have been well pissed if you had to move at 3 in the morning, safe travels mate, looking forward to the next one 🍺🍺

    Right you would have been wrecked after 14 days doing night shift. What a great spot to come and have a rest. Thanks for sharing it with us. I don't think I could be bothered filming it, but I'm glad you did. I was trying to explain to mum that it wasn't tidal but it was the water being let out of jinabine You've got a really good setup now. I'm looking forward to you spending a couple of nights in the one spot only sort of so it makes me relax with your mate. I know you've got heaps on hope the family's well and the house is going good. All the best sheppy

      @@michaelsheppard6486 it’s hard after nights, I struggle to get my words out sometimes, that’s why I love these sort of low keyed camps.
      There was a massive roster rail coming from the release at the Jindy dam wall.
      I’m on a 2 night trip in one location at the moment, but got led astray by some young fellas camping near me, first night wasn’t real relaxing !! 🤦🏽🤣
      Heaps going on as usual… struggle to keep up at times. I’ll just be doing what I can, not over committing to anything.

Still plenty of places that aren't overrun with the ubiquitous 4wd four door ute, geezus, they're like R-soles, everyone's got one. I've a few gems that I keep to myself. I like the awning for the Troopship, it fits it like a glove, exactly what I have in mind for my dream camping vehicle. Sure you didn't leave a tap on when you left work after two weeks night shift? Jindabyne might be empty when you get back? You must have walked one kilometre setting up camera's on the 'No Name track', it makes those beers taste better I guess. Cheers mate.

    The joys of camping on the edge of a stream. Had same dilemma on my way home from last years Vic HC trip. We camped by a creek and I setup some rocks as a guide and during the night the water came up maybe 6 inches. But once it was in my head the water was rising I couldnt sleep so we moved up off the edge onto the higher ground above the bank. Great sleep afrer that. Next morning the water had receeded to where it was the day before.

    Always enjoy seeing your videos. Mostly for the cracking spots you pull up to for camp. I just wish you would catch a bloody fish. Then you can send that shirt to me as I fill the criteria.
