Stopped for coffee break in Pilbara country, WA. The Kent Saddlery truck at rest. Enjoy the views Lyle and Helen.

Big Truck! Newman, WA. I bet Lyle would like that truck for carrying all Kent Saddlery’s gear on their cattle station trip!

Incredible crop production in Pindan country south of Broome, WA, at Shelamar Station. In 40 hectare “circles of soil”, with water spread by centre pivot, sweet corn, beans, and melons thrive (and taste just delicious!). Crops are transported to Perth for export and distribution Australia wide.

Loz and Ebony very excited about purchasing a bridle for Loz’s horse—to be used in the muster next morning at Yarrie Station, Pilbara, WA. “Can’t wait to put it on my horse!” (“….so I’ll try it myself!!”).

Shopping at Kent Saddlery’s travelling store while it visited Corunna Downs, Marble bar, WA.

Another dramatic silhouette marker of a man and woman on the hill coming into Newman, Pilbara, WA.

Driving towards Marble Bar, and to welcome visitors a series of signs and silhouettes make an eye catching feature. Just one of the many interesting things Lyle and Helen see while travelling the outback with Kent Saddlery’s Travelling Truck Shop.

Lyle and Helen were grateful for a shed to set up the Kent Saddlery travelling shop during some wet weather at Ethel Creek Station, Pilbara, WA recently…..

A shovel for every purpose! – Ethel Creek Station, Pilbara, WA.

Workers and John and Ethel Bettini (amazing older generation Bettinis) at De Grey Station, Pilbara, WA, all wanting to be in the front row of the station photo (NOT!). John Bettini still flies an aeroplane during the muster at De Grey and Ethel can produce sweet music on the piano in their home at the Station.
