:( Last Week!

---

We are now just doing the last minute things with cleaning up the ferns on the tracks and airstrip and will have to only mow parts of the compound. It has been so dry that there are only parts of the compound where the seed heads on the grass are all that need cleaning up with one or two small patches of grass that have got long enough to cut. Thank goodness as we are still only cutting it all with the Deutscher mower. We have had a boat in for the last couple of days so we have had some company for our last week and they left this morning so maybe we will have Deal to ourselves till Sunday when the Strait Lady is expected to come up with the incoming Caretakers. Monday will be a sad day as you will understand but hopefully we will get back to this island we have grown to love.

East end of Squally Cove
Our last big walk last weekend. Looking down the hill and towards the SE

The Flag Hill walk along Murray Pass
Our last walk along the Pass.

Jetty Barrier
This will make loading and unloading the Strait Lady easy. NOT!

Big Squally Wreck.
Nearly there from our big walk around the rocks to finish our walk. Kim refused to climb back up the hill we come down and as it was low tide we rock hopped around.

Indian Rockface
This is on the side of the hill at Big Squally and looks eerily real.
