is that river dry or is that a cannonball?

Spent the Easter weekend camping with the lads, We went up to Yarrawonga, only to find the river to be pretty fucking dry. It was really sad. you could walk across the river just about, needed to swim for a couple of meters on the other side where it was deep. So we sat and drank in the middle of the river as you do.

Mulwala is full, they just aren’t letting any water out.

Anyway Pics of the weekend can be found HERE

We struggled to find wood on the first night so we went into town, and attempted to buy Red gum at the supermarket, and servo’s, only to find out that everyone was sold out. Anyway Sammy went over to the pub to see if anyone knew where to buy some wood. Sammy walks back towards us after about 5 minutes, with a phone number in his hand. We are like wtf is that? Sammy proceeds to call. 

Sam ”Is that Cannonball?” 
Cannonball “yeah”
Sam “Robbo from the Cri(The Pub) said you might be able to hook us up with some firewood”
Cannonball “Yeah come round”

Anyway we went around to Cannonball’s joint, he gets to the front gate. This bloke is a 60 year old Brick Shithouse.  I got a little bit in the front yard, take some for tonight and come back tomorrow and I’ll bring some home with me. So we head off. Come back the next morning, and get to his gate he has a ton of wood on the back of his truck, literally a Ton. Anyway we take it all for $40. A ton in Melbourne would cost us upwards of $150+. So we got a Bargain. Anyway we now call any fire that is fucking huge A CANNONBALL!  fucking top bloke, was a great start to a good weekend.

Whilst posting this I found Microsoft Visual Earth, which snaps right into Windows Live Writer
