Sue Christmas Baking My Only Making

Sue had begun baking not long after we returned from our trip to Victoria.

Scottish Short bread, Christmas Cakes, Ginger Bread and Houses, its great to see our grandchildren devour the main one on Christmas eve.



Our daughter inlaw Nichole brough along these treats.

Oops forgot my only Christmas gift made this year, have to thank Hare & Forbes for the Key Holder part made at there November Open days. Timber is a slice of Camphor.

It was for Peter our son.

Monday 2nd Nov - Restocking

On our way home on Monday we past through Bendigo and Sue wished to make a stop at Bendigo Woollen Mills.

Three Bags Full.



I can't complain as I know I'll have warm woollen socks for next winter, maybe a nice vest or jumper as well.

Lake Goldsmith Steam

Sunday Sue and I made or first visit to Lake Goldsmith about 60k's from Ballarat. Weather just improved as the day rolled on. Its so big that we didn't get to see it all!! It would be a full weekend to be able to walk around photograph and talk to those exhibiting as well as draw it all in.

I agree with its has to be Australia's premier Steam fest home, sheds house many exhibits take a look at the aerial  photo and you'll see the scale of it.



























 


























My only complaint from a wheelchair user perspective is one disabled access toilet for a place this large is not good enough.
To everyone who displayed a fantastic job thanks more all your hard work in restoring your machines.
