TRH (The Retired Husband) and I are off today on a short ten day road trip. This time it’s a ‘rellie crawl’ – so visiting various family and friends scattered between Mt Gambier, South Australia and Lakes Entrance in Victoria . My postings may be a bit erratic but I will do my best to capture some interesting things along the way to share with you.

It is still this time for the year, but will fade off soon with winter on the way. We had a good look around it on our last trip in Sept.
