only driving in daytime then...
I try to take one day at a time, however sometimes several days catch up with me at once.

Sadly that won't work, Simply can't pump out enough juice form that to make any useful charging possible. Wouldn't even be enough to kick the charging circuit into action. Remember these things run on big AC voltages.  A solar panel as described might help a  little with auxiliary systems (windscreen wipes, electric windows)

...and then the Winged Hussars arrived.

The pond on the Eastern end of The Port of Brisbane this afternoon more and more Pelicans. All in harmony, not making much noise. The smell is quite odious to say the least. 😵😳
Another area has birds in their thousands roosting in the mangrove swamps.
All right in sight of a very busy industrial area. Nature is amazing.

Worse than Seals?  You smell seals waaaay before you see them.  They stink, well, the colony does.
😎  Always looking for the next corner.  😎

Have you ever walked through a Flying Fox colony.

Try walking through a penguin colony on a warm day, 500,000 little waiters crapping where they stand.  :thumbs_down:
Keep the rubber side down.          Mick

It was cool 25 degrees C when I went into the Flying Fox colony don't think you would come out again on a warm day. The rain droplets under the tree canopy are quite warm.

Looks like snow but it's hail & leaf litter.

That'd be nasty to ride on, hope you all managed to get through it unscathed.

 :hat: much better weather today this is Raspberry Lookout on the Gibraltar Range heading East towards Grafton visibility was impressive considering all the bush fires 🔥 lately I'm guessing the thunderstorms yesterday put out any lingering fires and smoke 🙏

That Toyota Century sounds pretty cool! I once saw one on the streets too and was surprised by its V12 engine. It's like a hidden gem in the world of cars.

I need to go somewhere I've not been but won't know until I get there!
