'I won't allow women in my stock camp, ' he stated flatly.
Val travelled over 10,000 km in pursuit of a job she had dreamed about from the age of twelve - being part of a stock camp on a big cattle property and riding horses all day. The cold welcome from the Nicholson head stockman raised her hackles and evoked a sharp retort that would hardly contribute to friendly relations.
Properly Long Way - Our Story tells of two very different lives with their ups and downs and stands as a witness to the resilience that is built in the bush. Val's life from birth in Buenos Aires through young adulthood in Rhodesia and on to dusty remote outback Australia is laid out in Part 1 Buenos Aires to Bulldust.
In Part 2, Trail Rides and Picnic Lunches, Val's husband Graeme, relates his Kimberley experience and calls his time there, 'the best days of his life'. Both sharing a great love of cattle, horses and the land, they find a way to overcome the barrier of their initial chilly introduction to finally marry, culminating in the swan song of their Kimberley experience - Love-a-bull Catchers.
