"Kalipetapeta, spring number two. This is a smaller spring. There are plenty of springs in the creek. One family went to travel from Epenarra to Elkedra. The old people, they'd stop at the spring and collect water, they'd carry it in a special coolamon all the way to Elkedra. They'd put leaves on top of the water to cover it from flies. Now we go with the car and show the young ones. Sometimes a day trip, sometimes camping out. We listen to the birds and bush animals make sounds and we know there is water there. My Husbands Country."
