From L to R: Julie, Diane, Tom, Noreen.
Di arrived in Sydney from Canada in 1971 and she and I met the following year. Noreen had been at university in London, Ontario with Di. She and Tom have been in NZ for 37 years now.
Once I have designed and shaped some stories, I will begin to post them on 'Hither & Thither'. We visited towns like Mansfield, Milawa, Bright, Beechworth, Yakandandah, and Chiltern. We went to wineries, cheeseries, bakeries (lots of bakeries!!), a butter factory, and a trout farm. Each day we hunted down our requirements for the evening meal, gathered them up and carted them home, and set about creating a feast for four. Using Diane's Panasonic Lumix 'point and shoot' (my camera having been pourloined, you might recall), I documented our raids into the countryside in my usual detail.

Looking forward to this trip. It is a favorite part of the country for me.
Julie, my offer still stands. Do you want my 400D? A little more basic than what you had but still a good camera to keep you going.
That is a great part of our country. I loved Beechworth and Bright and Milawa. I loved the wine and cheeses.
Sounds like you had fun. Good for you.

Sounds like wonderful times together Julie and I look forward to reading more about your excursions in that wonderful part of the country - I've been to Bright in the winter but I'm sure it would be very pretty in the Spring!
