July 5th

Got up early in hopes of catching Leith installing his artwork but was just too far away. By the time I got to the site Leith was all done and relaxing at a near by beach. So I took a few snaps then headed to hang on the beach with Leith. After a quick swim it was of to Byron bay for some drinks and dinner with Leiths sister and niece. Was a great evening out and I got to stay at Leiths parents place (in my camparina) with ample amounts and Tea and conversation.

Went with Leith and Eli to Eli's dads old place. Was pretty neat off grid old house that was being reclaimed by nature. It was pretty amazing. Even found Eli's first car! Then it was back to Leiths place for some tea and then I headed out and west towards Tenterfield. Just a bit of driving and then stayed in Girard State forest for the evening. A few tv shows were on for the evening as it was a bit cold. It rained quite a bit throughout the night.

Drove from Girard State Forest and into Tenterfield where I got to see Australias largest cork tree. Even parked the old Camperina under it! Then headed to Glen innes to pick up some local maps and then had lunch at a rest area near by. Am at a rest area now that is well off the highway and it looks like I may be the only one here which would be a nice break! Very lovely basic rest area.

The info I got has me excited for an area a few days from here where I am hoping to maybe see an observatory which would be great!

Just heard on the ABC radio that Elon Musk will be providing South Australia with the largest Lithium Ion battery in the world by December this year to be used with the Solar and Wind farms in the area. 100Megawatt battery. Should be cool to follow and if it all works out it will be the largest battery in the world and South Australia will be a world leader in storing renewable energy. Pretty cool.
