All good TP.... just thought I'd share a couple of pics with you.
All taken on a hi-tech Sansung S8 8)

The green shack is my mates down near windy harbour. His Dad built it in the 70's and we've been doing heaps there to bring it up to spec, to keep the shire happy and save it from being knocked down.
If you look on google earth for Gardener River, zoom in near the river mouth, you can see the 5 shacks there... it's our own little paradise.

The sunset is at west end on Rottnest.

Edit, you got the explanation in before I could post.

Shack looks decent. Open fireplace or wood stove with the chimney?

It's the top of an old wood stove built into a fireplace. That deck is going and a new one, substantially bigger, is going in.
Always catch fish, there's heaps of marron & bream in the River. Hardly ever see anybody else when we're there.
I'm heading down for a few nights in my next R n R. Little bit more work to help with (plumbing is complete) but should get some time for a fish this time.
