Catching up...

We have wandered our way back from South Australia over two days, we stopped and found a few geocaches, much to hubbies dismay!! Lol!! Good for him I told him, a chance to get out of the car!!
This beautiful old pub was in Pinaroo,



we stopped in at Ouyen and had a look at the hospital, this was where David was born...has changed greatly we are told, not that David remembers!! Lol!!



this quilt was just inside the main door, 

this was looking down the main street of Ouyen...there was a storm coming!!

this school is very changed but this was where Davids father taught way back in 1955/56!! 
We stayed overnight at Sea Lake, we found an old pub and boy it was an old pub, I have always wanted to stay in an old country pub with the upstairs verandah, but maybe better to do that in the summer, it was freezing!!! We had a small heater in our room but still ended up in bed at 8pm to try and get warm!!!

this was the sunset from the verandah

fading a bit now

last one, is very cold out here!!

this was a beautiful old house in Inglewood
I did manage to do some sewing
some single hexies and another row ready to sew on to the main quilt.
Today I have been to a class with some ladies from the guild.....we learned how to do Nuno felting....that was a challenge for the hands and arms I can tell you!!
Well I wanted to add photos from today but blogger will not let me, so will try again another day.
Had better go organise some dinner
Happy sewing.
