What a magnificent Easter break.

Eastern Victoria, beautiful sunny days, mid 20's. Chilly nights, great for a roaring fire and a campfire chat.

Sneak off to a cold bed, cuddle up and warm as toast.

Get up to a clear, crisp, sunny morning. Relight the fire and have a cuppa.

Settle down to a warm day of brilliant sunshine and do it all again.

Five really tough days LOL.

Jim.

Yep had a great few days down at Cape Paterson teaching the lads how to snorkel. A few Crays, some good vino and great company. Always fun at this time of year.

Cheers Mick

Hi Jim,
We were up in Lindsay Island in the Murray Sunset National Park last week, and real Queensland weather, perfect one day and even better the next. Mind you the country is looking very sick and some of that Queensland rain would not go astray up that way. By the look of Websters Lagoon, it has been a very long time since it has seen any water.

Cheers

Stephen

Mr D,

They'll be finished tomorrow. If you can drag your arse out of bed Saturday morning you can pick the unit up then.

Cheers,

Jim.

Jim,

Sounds like similar weather to what to expect for the St George Gathering ;)

I don't think there will be a need to relight the fire every morning though as I think we should have enough firewood to keep it going for the 8 nights/9days. We will just have to make sure it is well stoked before calling it a night.

I hope you are still planning on attending as well :)

Cheers Kev

On Sunday we forded the Murray into Vic at Tom Groggin. Drove along Davies Plain track, camped at Buckwong creek, home via Mount Pinnibar. Had to put up with brumbies running through the camp in the moonlight. It was bloody awful.Image Could Not Be Found

A few, but not enough to worry us. There were none at Davies Plain Hut, a couple at Charlies Creek. Our three vehicles at the Buckwong Hut. We past a few on the track.
