Two woman was sitting down. They were sitting down there, visitors. And kids they playing trampolines, swing. Everywhere garden and flowers and lawn. It was nice and clean. Every afternoon rake em up. Make him really clean, that house, my granddaughter. Sometimes I help my granddaughter. And then we sit down and watch TV then after make him nice and clean, or sit down outside. This house here, all the time clean. Granddauhter's house. She driving Docker River Night Patrol in afternoon and nightime. That's why vehicle there. And that two old lady, they stop at Old People's home. And that young fella said to them, 'you two want to go? We'll give you a lift to Old People's home in the Night Patrol.' Merrna, that hill in the background. Two Sister Dreaming there.That's all.
