Free Camping, Caravans RV's Motorcycles Kayaks Drones, exploring in WA, this is My life since turning 50 (born 1959) but still feeling 20. This channel is about what I do to keep myself feeling young, in Summer I go fishing in the Kayak with a bit of Stealth camping and touring in my van. When it turns to the cooler months Hiking (not very often) and motorcycle off road camping is my pleasure, I also like doing a bit of DYI and have added a few product reviews in for good measure. I have uploaded some drone footage from my Mavic Mini and Mavic Pro. I have also taken up photography so will also be adding a playlist with a variety of photos I have taken, probably some better than others.
SHORTS
I have started to add some shorts videos, these are mainly to promote existing videos, but I will be including a number of Van life hacks so keep an eye out for them and other info that would be too short for a full video, your comments are welcome on them.
Thanks for watching

Any relation to Ted Hewitson?
Sorry no does not ring a bell , my family is in NZ
Looks good Pete 👍 wet there and sunny here doesn't sound right that lol
Being a Kiwi a bit of rain never stopped me , a great spot and pub
Great video Peter! Never been to Kulin, or Wickepin. I will now, thanks. JT from Kalamunda.
Hope you enjoy it! The free camping area is great the toilet block has hot showers free
If you have the means to stay warm, it's a great time of the year to get out into WA's wheatbelt. I'll also drop a plug for the small shire camping areas and caravan parks if your need power. They're welcoming, mostly really well maintained and comparatively cheap. Great episode. Thanks.
Thanks glad you enjoyed it we will be going back again 👍🍺😎
Beautiful town Pete, lov the pool and slide
Glad you enjoyed it , a must visit especially the pub .
Good video from you Peter .. and yes Margret and Don and the rest of crew do a great job of running the railway line there 👍👍👍
Yes they do , I really enjoyed my time with them I was great to get a special ride on the train
What a kool little town. Great video. The pub meal looked excellent 🎉
Thanks so much for watching 👀
Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for watching! Cheers Pete
Hi all and thanks for watching , please leave a comment or just say hi , a thumbs up would be great , Cheers Pete 👍👍👍👍
Just did that trip 12 months or so ago. Lots things to see.
It's a very interesting area especially now it's getting green , might have to go back for the wild flowers , thanks for watching
Spooky ? Yeh im one of the kids from mogumber primary that had to get changed in the old hospital for swimming lessons 😂 one of the Harvey clan ❤
I hope it did not bring back bad memories , I felt a presence the who time I was there , I would love to see it restored and used to educate . Thanks for watching and your comment .
We had to read A Fortunate Life in high school. It's a good read, you'd enjoy the history and story I'm sure 😊
I have to get the book now to learn more of the history of the place . Thanks for watching and commenting
I think that ruin at the start of the video was one we made a vid about some time ago but the owners were none too happy about it and we had to take it down. Facey's book is a really good read for anyone who hasn't read it yet. The water slide in Kulin was a bit of an eye opener when we first went there :)
Yer ! Kulin is a great spot , I was setting up the drone on the road and a bloke stopped to see I was OK and when I said what I was doing he said it would be OK to go in to film .
Good video, well done.
Thank you very much! glad you enjoyed it , Cheers Pete
Thank you very much! Glad you enjoyed it , Cheers Pete

Hi and thanks for watching , please leave a thumbs up👍👍 if you wood like to see more of this type of caravan park review , 🍺🍺Cheers Pete
Mukka is a great little town. We always drop in to the second hand bookshop in town and usually pick up a bunch of great local history books about W.A. We stayed in one of the little cabins last time, really cheap and very nice. The camp kitchen is one of the best we have seen. So many great places to check out in that area too.
Yes a great town have been into that bookshop before , loved the campers kitchen
Thanks Pete. Never considered Mukinbudin before. Definitely do now. Great video. JT from Kalamunda.
Cheers it's a great base to get out and explore the area , thanks for watching 👀

Good product review mate, Cheers, will
Thanks 👍hope it helps keep the bites off , cheers for watching and commenting
Looks good Pete 👍
Hi mate thanks for watching and supporting my channel , a nice little town
What temp over there ? Amazing small town 👍
Winter can get to around -1C at night but never seen snow , summer can be up to the mid 40's C
$35 for a powered site in a backwoods town is a bit rich.
That seems about average these days
A "backwoods town" still has to make a living ace. Not a lot of people coming through, how do you think they keep their facilities going. Out of their own pocket maybe? Think about it mate.🤔
@@Hillbilly973 righto dad.
Wow 🤩
🍻
What a cool race 😃👍
Cheers , it's a great day out I love they race around the town .
Hi Peter could you please give me the link for the insulated bG from Annaconda. Cheers. Ed
Hi not sure what you are after ? If it was the cooler bag I added I found it on the shelf in the Midland store
@@peterhewitson71 cheers mate 👍
Nice photos Pete 👍
Thanks for commenting 🙂 cheers
Very nice pics.
Thank you! Cheers!
Beautiful photos Peter. There's so much to see away from the coastal tourist hot spots in this great state of ours. Far from the madding crowd(s) is always my preference.
I agree 100% so much yet to see
Lot of 🐎
I was a great weekend I will have to go back again , the history of the race is amazing , see you there next year .😎👍
Interesting tour around there Pete presume the coastal defenses were incase the Japs invaded ?
Thanks!!
No problem! Thanks for watching 👀
Poor old horses they took didn't make it back. All but 1 were shot. Very sad ending to that particular story. Great stuff, had no idea at all about the race down there (it amazes me how much I don't know sometimes LOL). Have to check it out one day.
Yes a sad story , you must get to the car racing a great weekend 😀 thanks for watching
Yea, it's a sad story. You have to make it to the car racing a great weekend
Awesome episode Pete, Albany is awesome 👍👍👍but didn't know they put on a rally so it seems I need to google time frames 😀😀😀 Cheers for sharing 🍺🍺🍺
It's a must do always long weekend, book it now , cheers for watching
I love Albany Walpole, it's a great stretch of coast. Nice one Pete
Hi Kev IAgree thanks for Watching
Shhhhh don't tell everyone.. We don't like tourists here 😅😂 and we're shut on Sunday.. Glad the weather improved a bit for the races on Sunday.
Thanks for the comment , I Love Albany any day of the week 😎
So do we but we're biased 😊
Hi and thanks for watching , hope you enjoy the video Please leave a thumbs up Cheers Pete 👍👍👍👍👍👍😎
So you flew your drone over the camp sites at 5.30am, what a wanker
Hi Peter nice job with mounting the tool tube. Are you able to tell us what size tool tube you used please? Thanks.
It was 300mm long I think there is only one size , Ebay approx $20.00 , cheers for watching , keep the shiny side up , Pete

Thanks again Peter. Might be a future destination
A great spot in summer with the pool complex next door. Cheers for watching
Where's this mine? Heaps up in the hills hidden by bush.
