Back to Running
Creek Reserve for our 3rd “Mel Cup” weekend with Myswag.org friends
we have met over the year’s. Arrived before lunch on the Friday to see the camp
area quit full a different picture to previous years. The main river crossing
joining a number of camp grounds along this part of the river had a “Road
closed” sign which stopped everyone from crossing and packing into this area,
while full was not that bad and all our group
managed to camp close by
During the evening
a number of Police, Ambulance and SES vehicles drove into camp where a “camper”
had done some damage to his knee some distance along a track and was assisted
out buy around 14 of the search party needing to cross the river with knee deep
freezing water the entire exercise lasted around 4/5 hrs few drinks around the
fire and off to bed
Saturday into
Mansfield for the morning coffee and cake at the bakery before home for an
early start with a few drinks before dinner, camp fire with more laughs and drinks
and in bed around midnight
Sunday the others
decided to take a drive up the “high country” as this is the first weekend that
this areas is open post winter we decided to have a lazy day around camp and
ventured into Jamieson for lunch and a drive around some other camp areas
further away. Back to camp to get the “pig” ready for a dinner of a mini-roast
and vegies early night in bed by 9:30ish up to the sound of rain!!!
We waited
for the camper to dry before packing up so that we did not have to muck around unpacking
when we go home. Linda managed to catch up after 3 days without internet
coverage once she was contented she managed to sleep all the way home with a
lunch stop in between
