Progress and heading home

We left Merrijig not long after 9am and headed for home.

We had a stop on Hay to find a geocache here

I have huge difficulty with these but the hint helped greatly here.

The PO is a lovely building, there was flooding here, the river was very high and the surrounds covered on water from the rain we had the day before. There was also heavy rain and trees down in Merrijig, we were blissfully unaware! We did see one car on its roof over off the side of the road, no idea what happened there either. 😳 

We arrived on Sorrento in good time and met Carleens hubby at a cache there I hadn't been able to find and he has. After a few minutes I could see it thank goodness, it took longer to get the lid back in place !

Looking up the street from the cache site 

Carleen and her hubby headed for home,  I decided to try for another cache I hadn't had luck with years earlier

I found it no problems this time 😄 this is the view nearby 

The cache is just near the railway line, this us part of the railway from Drysdale to Queenscliff,  often steam trains run along here. The rail line Drysdale to Geelong is now a walking/cycling path with lots of caches.

I did do dome stitching when we were away, this is the progress I have made with Tea and Cake a Judy Newman pattern.

I have reached the ends but there is still filling to do on the sides and another row of hexie flowers. Was great to get a second floor view.

I went out to get something from the car and saw these visitors

Back home now, did some weeding today and finished reading this book

Was a good read.

There was a wonderful  bookshop in Mansfield, I'm an old building with a bay window and creaky wooden floors. They has a set of books I have mostly read, I bought the last 2 in the series and then went back a few days later and got the rest!

A little extravagant but I enjoyed these and hope to read them again.

Happy stitching.
