Early in 2014 my wife decided to do an extended tour together with her daughter. Daughter would complete her studies during 2015, after which she would not be able to do such a tour for a number of years.

“Great idea!”, I said.

“Would you like to go along?” mom asked.  Then an idea jumped into my mind.

“Uhmmm…  No, it would not be the same for you if I go along. This is a mother-daughter affair. I think I would rather dig into my bucket list and take GeelKameel for a trip”.

Ek het as plaasjapie in die Ooskaap grootgeword, in die omgewing van Fort Beaufort.

My eerste vyf jaar op die plaas Kroonkop/Grashoek (S32  41.509 E26  47.427) in die Mancazana vallei (Juanasberg), oos van die dorp. Die volgende paar dekades op die plaas Rietfontein (S32  52.386, E26  36.735) in die Gardenersdrif gebied, wes van die dorp.

‘n Tyd gelede het ek daar gaan toer om te sien wat geword het van daardie wereld wat ek 10jaar laas gesien het.  Die eerste dag was ‘n toer oor Hogsback, Michelspas en die Katbergpas.
