Communicating in the wild

 I have bought lots of data and more phone time than I think we will ever use here (cost for 2 months, 2G data, 80 minutes phone: $44!) so it’s good to tether my IPad to my phone to use it. Shaw is often an issue for some reason, Ted often can’t download attachments. And we get lots of spam from it too. But we have good wifi here.
  We go off from 10-3:30 n a second drive, from cloud to sun. WE return to check out the bird and below surface observation area but it’s pretty quiet. E restock here, crackers and tomatoes, all good here. 
 Back to shower while it’s hot (it’s quite cool and fresh here in the mornings) then off to another drive 4-6pm. Evening is splendid for drives and seeing the animals up and grazing again. 
  We had had very sad news from UK that our good family friend and amazing artist Jason Bowyer died. HIs funeral was yesterday and Liz has written me a nice message talking me all about it. We hope they passed on our condolences as we don’t have Claire’s email. A big hole in the lives of many people, but we have lovely memories of him on our walls.
  We have power this evening so it’s lamb and wild boar pie tonight with salad and chocolate, lots of chocolate. I check emails and we are again off to bed early.
