Last few days in Mt Isa

Almost the end of my stay in Mt Isa. The staff member going overseas because of family illness didn't seem to know when a visa would be forthcoming and I decided that i wanted a definite finish date. Now that the flight is organised, my colleague phoned a short while ago and asked if I could get the flight changed and stay on for another 2 weeks. I can' t change the flight now!!. Anyway it's time to go home and get on with a few things that have to be done at home. I am missing the Family and it seems so long since I spent time with the Fergus, Zac and Koby. My cat is with Shelley and she had a visit to the vet last week. So I am pleased I made the decision on Friday
I did the sleepover shift Wed, Thurs and Friday - Wed & Thursday were quiet, but Friday was busy and i didn't get much sleep. I didn't see or here the resident ghost Charlie!!! I had all weekend to catch up on my sleep. I have a good book, so the weekend has gone by quite quickly reading sleeping and eating!!. The weather has cooled down a little, dropped back down to 25 deg from last week at 32.

No more photos at the moment. I didn't have the other mine tour as I didn't get much sleep on Friday evening, probably just a quick trip to town tomorrow and then home on Tuesday. the next posting will be from chilly Melbourne, til then.......
