In this podcast Harley, in conversation with Lisa Rickert, recalls his trip up and landing at Meekathara. He reflects on the rare occasions that the rain came and the effects it had, and also the highlights of camp living. He remembers a geologist called Ray Martin and what he did. He worked in the camp for all of 1963 and then described his life beyond this time, including a short time back in Newman in 1969, but housing was unavailable, so he moved on.
