Expedition

It was about 10.30pm when I'd finished up several other activities for the evening, and got to drive a short distance from home to the hash. The road surfaces on the main road were being repaired, and new lines marked at several corners. Detour time.
I parked beside a road machine and walked into the bush, using a mobile phone's dull glow to prevent tripping on the tall grass and hidden rocks. Down by the creek, I could see the dam wall at the nearby road (the road crosses the dam wall) and navigated in using the phone's locator.
After several pics, I walked back.
