First of all we went to the Silverton cemetery where we saw 200 year old graves.  After that we went to the Pro Hart Gallery. His favourite thing to paint we think was dragonflys.  At night we sat around the campfire (free camp) and toasted marshmallows.



Mount Remarkable / Alligator Gorge

Comments – Mum and Dad

Visited the Pro Hart Gallery today; not only was this amazing Australian an accomplished  artist and sculpture but he was a miner for 20 years, motivated body builder, car and motor bike enthusiast and most important devoted father to his 5 children; he donated alot of his paintings to help families in his community.

Travelled a long flat straights, then through Alligator Gorge and Mount Remarkable into Port Augusta.  Hit road A87 to our free camp 50 km north; this is the start of our journey into the Red Centre.
