2015 ROSS RIVER “RESORT”

Weclome to Ross River (no nothing to do with mosquitoes and viruses), North East of Alice Springs with a taste of the Australian outback pioneering history.

Introducing our new home for at least 6 months.  Brad has committed to the role of Maintenance Manager and Lola and I have committed to the 90km daily drive to town for work and school - it's definitely worth it though, and a beautiful drive, different every day.

The resort formed around the original Loves Creek Homestead built in the 1890's, in 1901 supplying vegetables to the miners at Arltunga.  Then from horses to cattle, the homestead is now an outback "resort" with 30ish cabins available, rustic bar and dining facilities as well as campgrounds in a beautifully natural red centre desert setting. 

Meanwhile I’m off for a quick work trip to Darwin for a Regional IT Managers Conference - oh the humidity, will never ever be in Darwin in the wet season.
