Party in the Riverbed at Emily Gap

Alright...I am trying to catch up on a few posts from a bit earlier and then I have a couple recent posts as well to come. These pictures are from 29 March 2008. We went to a going away party for Trav's coworker, Terry and his wife, Ann. It was the greatest thing because the party was actually in one of the many dry river beds here in the Red Centre. The first couple of pictures are of a magnificent tree that was growing near the riverbed. It was just so pretty and there was still light because this is when we first arrived at the party. Another fun thing was that we actually drove down into the riverbed! Although it isn't very deep, I just thought it was so great because that is something we never would have even considered doing back home, not that there was an opportunity to do so!!


I was just taking a picture here of the surrounding scenery. I am astonished by the beauty of this place each and every single day I am here. You can't look anywhere without seeing something breathtaking in Alice. We are so very lucky to be here!

This is just a picture we took of all the people at the party. I got to meet a lot of people and had a great time talking to everyone. It was wonderful!


Here is an obviously self-taken picture of Trav and me. It took three takes before we got one where no one's head was cut off and my eyes were open!


Here is a picture of the fire that was there. Amazingly enough, it actually got cold enough to wear coats and want to be by the fire. What a difference a month makes!!

On the right is Terry and his wife Ann. They were the guests of honor and were leaving Alice after I think 15 or 16 years. People that come here love it so much that a lot of them end up staying or coming back for another tour. Yes...it is that great here!!
