Red soil, strange animals, saltbush and the Sturt dessert pea all typified our visit to the town of Broken Hill. Broken Hill is just about as far west as one can go in NSW on the border of South Australia. A visit to some good friends is what took us there and we had a week full of fun as well as the added bonus of being able to share a glimspe of what the Lord is doing in Chile with a few churches while we were there.
The township of Broken Hill. Primarily a mining town. They mine mainly silver.
We spent 3 days camping beside Menindee Lakes. This is about an hour and a half east of Broken Hill.
Sunset at Menindee Lakes. 
The landscape is just so distinct and beautiful.
The colours always amaze me, everything is so red.
We went to a spot just outside of Broken Hill at sunset. 
Just a beautiful afternoon.
The dirt is so red. This picture just doesn't do it justice.
A camel ride kept us out of mischief. All the green vegetation you see is Saltbush and is the staple diet of these camels.
Fun with friends
The Sturt Desert Pea - stunning!
You can look as far as the eye can see and still it is flat.
Thanks Brian and Kara we had a wonderful time with you guys.
