Two Short Trips

Next week we plan to leave on our big trip. So far we have done two short ones. The first was in January, only 4 days after we moved to Drysdale, and we went to Adelaide and the Clare Valley. Highlights were :

•  a fund raising dinner for Maranatha Health with Geoff and Tricia
•  Sunday lunch with G & T and Margery ( Tricia's sister) and husband Peter with birthday cake for Merilyn
• Australia Day concert and fireworks - we thought it was going to be the ASO playing the 1812 overture but it was a pop concert, ASO were next month. Still good fun.
• The Reisling Bike Trail in the Clare Valley - excellent, can thoroughly recommend.

On the way home we stopped at Pomonal so that Merilyn could lead the singing group.

For our second trip (last week), we went to Pomonal so that Merilyn could take the singing group.

We had a lovely Saturday lunch and then a bike ride with Carole and Ross McGregor and caught up with lots of friends at church on Sunday Then we had a night down at Port Campbell but we had to come home the next morning so that Bruce could meet his new rheumatologist. They had phoned up whilst we were travelling through the Grampians and changed the appointment which wasn't supposed to be until April 26th.

Next week we leave on the Friday and travel to Pomonal so that Merilyn can - you guessed it - lead the singing group, for the last time. She is going to miss this group very much.

Then it will be onwards to adventure after adventure! Stay posted!
