We left Alice and headed out to make our fortune (yeah right) at a place just up and east of Alice Springs called Gemtree. We just stayed for two nights but it was great to be out under the stars, with camp fires each night and showers heated by fire under drums.
Then we went fossicking for garnets....as you can see a very dirty, dusty job....but great fun if you have never done anything like this before.
We got a few...so Ted if you are reading this...I'll have a small job for you on our return..1 x 6mm, 2 x 4mm and 3 x 3.25mm. They need cutting first..know anyone?
