Four 8ft by 4ft beds for the rotation, with mulched paths in between. Nearly half way on the digging it through and removing big stones and the naughty last bits of dock roots.

Cousin Nathan & Josh dig for treasure in the back yard. They turned up numerous rocks, but nothing of value.

This snake was digging through the soft earth with its head apparently trying to hunt down something it had scented.

On 7th January 17 people started digging on the site next to Carter's House at the entrance to the Valley of the Kings. They are involved in the important task of preserving the tombs in the Theban Necropolis. An exact facsimile of the tomb of Tutankhamun will open to visitors next spring.
The project has been funded by Factum Foundation.

Digging by the water earlier today. Charlie had a long day today, he went swimming twice, once in the morning with Mommy and a friend with her dogs, and he lost his kong because it fell too deep in the water, and another time in the afternoon when Daddy tried to go save the Kong but it was gone already. After 3.5 hours running, swimming, digging and playing with other doggies he was totally exhausted! :)
Note, this is a "cross view" stereo image - to see it in 3D, you need to cross your eyes so that you see 3 images, then look at the one in the middle.
Digging deep in my archives for something to post. What a wonderful surprise to find all the beautiful Birthday wishes while I was out. Thank you all so very much for the beautiful friendship over the years.
I have been knee deep in genealogy.
Love U all.
The children, who have been working since sunrise, literally crash and lie down to sleep in the dirt beside the hole where they work. Nuru (13), and Kongo (15), are covered with just one blanket and lie close to each other to keep warm during the night at Gangaol site near Bani.

I have literally thousands of photos from this trip. If any one wants more of a particular vehicle, let me know.
This is day 1, trip along the Border Track - Dog Fence.
This must be one of the best sand tracks to be found in Victoria/South Australia. It follows the border from near Pinnaroo right down to near the Melbourne - Adelaide hwy.
This track has very large sand hills to get over. Most of these hills have tracks to get around them if you are not able to get over them. Some of these hills are so extreme there's no way anyone will get over them, so this track can very easily be classed as a 'Difficult' track.
Very Important. Check with the SA National Parks and Reserves for information on when the track is closed, and what direction you need to go in.
The track is about 107km. Allow a full day to make this trip. For a more enjoyable weekend, take your time and camp anywhere along the track. Stop in or camp at Red Bluff - scenic red sandstone hill.
(This is where we stopped). Dress warm though as it gets hot in the day, freezing at night.
Make sure you pack all your recovery gear, and travel in a group with other 4wd's. (We had to recover 2 vehicles).
Check the depths of the mud holes. Some for us were over 1 meter deep. Watch out for the holes towards the end, they are really deep!
Momentum is your friend on the sand dunes. We used 15psi tyre pressures. (Try the sand dunes 3x, if you fail, take the chicken path)
We ended up getting lost around the supposed turnoff to red bluff, that according to the maps was "well signposted".
We ended up with broken eggs and bottles.
This is mostly a sandy track with dunes and provides you with a remote location for testing self and equipment without travelling deeper into the outback.
The environment is typical Victorian desert – Mallee country. Expect some scratching from Mallee scrub particularly in the Wyperfeld section and some parts of the Northern Border Track may be overgrown. Soft sand is to be found on the tracks as well as corrugations and hard gravel.
The border track is steeped in history largely due to the dispute which arose from the original survey completed between 1847 and 1850. The result is that the border is actually sighted some 3kms too far West. A fascinating account of this can be obtained from John Deckert at Westprint Heritage Maps if you manage to visit whilst in Nhill.
There is an abundance of wildlife to enjoy whilst undertaking this trip, so watch out for Emu and Kangaroo. Aboriginal rock holes can be found close to the junction with South Bore Track.
We were lucky to reach the top speed of 40 kms/hr.
