A lazy dinner last night. I used the 12V oven to reheat six of Jan's home made sausage rolls.
This morning the convoy continued southeast and for several kilometres we travelled through open desert
Eventually we reached the junction of Lake Rason Track and the Connie Sue Track. The latter runs north-south between Warburton, on the Great Central Road and the Trans-Australian Railway Access Road. Legendary outback surveyor Len Beadell named the track after his daughter.
I was quite surprised with the condition of the Connie Sue having anticipated another overgrown goat track that would be heavily corrugated and twisting. It was quite the reverse. A wide and almost straight unsealed road albeit with some corrugations and bulldust. We managed speeds of 90km/h before finding a decent campsite at 4pm.
Later that afternoon one of the group gave other interested drivers a lesson on how to break the bead on a tyre using the vehicle jack before removing and replacing the tyre.
It appears I might have been the only person in the group travelling with a proper bead breaker tool and tyre levers.
That evening I attempted to take some night photos around the campfire.
