Headed off from Cowra Nats on the Friday...............via the Bylong Valley/Nundle/Tamworth /Glen Innes/Grafton/Yamba...................

.......one of the most scenic drives down the Bylong Valley.....everything green after recent heavy rains...............







called in to the Man from Snowy River Horse Event at Murrurundi and caught up with Dawso......( restoring 21' Olympic Stardust, on here)





....on up to Nundle,where we bumped into Reddo on his old motorbike rally.................





.....beaut l'ilcaravan park,with great amenities and a large fire pit............AND a light Jack Frost at -1




.....some great colours in the trees.....................









.............but the highlight was the great Nundle Dog Race............if ever you're in the area on the first weekend in May, then this is a 'must see'.......................






........dawgs of all descriptions competing in a variety of novelty events/races throughout the day.........side splitting entertainment............Tally won her race in the 0ver 18years Dash!!!!



















.............on up to Fishing Haven CP(our favourite)on the Clarence River at Palmers Island .....halfway between Mc Lean and Yamba............hoping to catch some bream ??.....................

Tally HO!
Give that dog a bone for chasing the Hare of the Dawg at Nundle! We'll have to get to that dog race next year, Scuddie would love it! We got waylaid at a swapmeet halfway home & bought a vintage 1957 Singer industrial/canvassy sewing machine on the back of the ute. Phil & Louise thought we looked like Ma & pa kettle.

Bet you're all having a good time at "the haven" at Yamba, prior to all the stars and planets aligning tomorrow? You know!!!!!!

BIG congrats then for tomorrow for yours & Barbs 40th wedding anniversary, you're a lovely couple of people, no wonder you are both still happily together after 40 years.

But wait there'e MORE!

Happy Birthday for the BIG ONE tomorrow Barb & hope you have a happy mothers day as well, you certainly deserve it, especially for your wonderful care of your neighbours at Cowra: pumpkin soup, & pea n ham soup.

Look forward to more get togethers soon.

All the best to you both, have a great day tomorrow!

Cathie, Rob & Scuttles

Looks like you guys are still having fun. Wish we could have stayed on the road with you a lot longer.
The trip to Cowra was one to remember (car trouble and all ). We are feeling restless already and can't wait for our next campout.
Happy birthday Barb.
Cheers . John and Dianne

Hello sutcacs

Look.....out on the track... is ita bird.. is it a plane... Nooooooooooooo....... Its Tally Sutcac by a short head.

Go you good thing.

Yup... definitely put The Great Nundle Dog Race on your "must attend" list.
I think i will snap the monday off next year and make the bike rally a 4 day event.
Ride the bike saturday on the rally and do a short run sunday to be back in time for the Over 19s dog race.

Might even do a bit of SP bookying on the side and clean the locals out aye Clyde. ;D

I suspect by now ya will be at Yamba with an esky full of nice bream and flathead.... or at least a few kilo of nice tiger prawns on a plate waiting to be devoured.....

Hope the weather stays kind for the big birthday and anniversary bash tomorrow....what a way to spend it... out and about caravaning in a beauttiful part of OZ...

Enjoy

Hi All,

Well we got caught up in Fugly's return trip at Palmers Island, along with David & Lyn.

Had a great few days catching little bream & eels & catfish, & knocking a few drinks & a bit of food down with some good friends.




Had to leave today to get home, & that ended a great tip.

We stayed at Gulgong on Saturday night, & it was cold. First big frost my hotrod has felt for a long time.
