Me and the family are likely going to Camp past sheepyards maybe up at 6 mile flat for a night or two. A bit further upstream of the Howqua river and less people will be there. Well. Should be less. We'll just swagging it as it will be a last minite decision depending on house stuff and weather.

Yeah 6 and 8 mile are a fair bit up the road from Wrens. But you got Bluff and Lovicks hut further up. Bluff hut has bloody awesome views.
We might even just spend a night at 6 or 8 mile then nick off around the back and come out at Jameison. Or just stay put. Its just going to be us i think, unless anyone else wants to come. So its all weather depending on what we do. Safety first.
Plus i might even don the 35s and see if the trotters catch me. Lol. Or just leave the AT's on. Most stuff out that way if dry is easily doable with AT's.
Howqua hill track down to Frys is fun if its wet, which you will be going down if your going to sheepyards. But being just opened it shouldnt be too ripped up.

Yeah not looking good at the moment.
Five minutes after the photographer left today after taking photos of our house i had started the trench in the back yard getting it deep and long enough for the plumber.
So. If the plumber gets here in the next day or so. And then i can put the grass back that i cut out and do a few other things needed. We'll he going but its not looking good at the moment.
The agent want the house ready and on the market by this time next week. But im trying bud.
What day you leaving?

Sorry to hear mate, sounds like you've got a bit on your plate at the moment.
We're leaving Saturday morning heading towards Licola then working way towards Sheepyard flat general area Monday night in order to leave via Mansfield on Tuesday morning

Yeah ok... if we manage to get away it would be for one night. Is there any channel you will be on? Just incase we get to Sheepyards ill holler out. If i do go, ill go for a squirt up Three Chain tk. The top of this track has a clear view of pretty much everywhere. I could maybe get you up there on the radio.
As for the house. Im pretty good now. me and the wife got a crap load done, just waiting for the plumber to do his thing, then we clean up his mess, do a bit more and we are good to go.

Good to hear you're getting ontop of things with the house mate!!
Our trip plans have changed due to lack of interest....so now we're going up with all the family and camping in running creek general area Saturday / Sunday night as a base camp and doing some easy day trips. Will be on Chanel 16/17 most likely if you're in the area!

That's a bummer I would have been keen for sure if I didn't have something else on
