Great pics! My wife used to work as an engineer for DPWS doing safety inspections of the dams in northern NSW. Keepit dam was 'one of hers'. I'll save a copy of the pic and be sure to show her.

When I was there for New Year 2000 the dam level was about 70 % (or was it 50 %, I forget). Anyway it has reminded me of a funny story ..... We spent New Year there for the new millenium and there was lots of talk in the media about the Y2K bug and the power grid would shut down and the sky would fall and all that stuff. Anyway, when we woke up on the morning of 1/1/2000 there was no power to the shack we were staying in. We weren't sure for a while if the predictions had come true. Of course it turned out to be a localised problem but it was funny at the time.
