After Baradine

After Scrub Stitchin’, we still had a few days with Lou and Tony before they headed back home to New Zealand.

Firstly, just a couple of photos from our drive back from Baradine.

We love the windmills at Gilgandra.  I don’t think I’ve had a windmill photo for a while.

It was a nice Frank and Caravan photo op.

What we did notice was how much drier it was at home compared to further north of us.  But apparently, we are still way better than more southerly parts of the country.

However, the poplars were lovely, as they started to turn golden.

Lou came with me to my patchwork group one day and while we were away the boys played.

They took Rosie for a bit of 4WD playing at our mate’s place.

Mick also had Tony working at the bowling club one day.  No rest for the wicked.

Of course, there was a ride in Olga the old sidecar.  I believe Tony even had his first go at riding a sidecar.

I will post about our day at Cowra separately.

Before we knew it, it was Good Friday and time to bid our visitors farewell.  It was a pleasure to have them stay.

Tony enjoyed his time with Mick, he got to experience one or two new forms of transport. Thank you again, to both of you for your hospitality.

You are right, it is much, much drier further south, in fact SA has had it's driest 15 month period since 1839!!
