On the road to Gundagi

Hello Friends,

Gotta get back in the swing of things. I had a very pleasant stay with Glenda and Ray and family in Loch/woodleigh, attempted to pack more of my "stuff" into the motorhome. Managed to empty a large tub, and a small one. I was able to send to my eldest grandaughter, Emma a tub of linen. She has moved to Melbourne to further her studies, so that was good, I could help her and empty some of my excess linen on to her. Then finally after some very hot days, I was off to Albury Wodonga, to have some vital maintenance done on the motorhome. Luckily they found the leak and apparently fixed it, also the hatch handle and a few other minor probs. But the best bit was , they washed the old girl! She looks like a new one again.
Victoria nad SA have had such bad bushfires, almost my wole drive north was throug quite heavy smoke. altough I wasn't personally very near any fires, it was a bit nerve wracking smelling smoke for the whole time one is driving. Of course I almost don't know where I am going, as I just feed the destination into the GPS and let it take me, quite an exciing way to travel, but you are not sure where you are going. Anyway finally had some rain the last couple of days and now the sky is cloudy but clear, if you get my drift. I tried to take a photo to show how smoky it was, but you know me and adding photos to the blog, we will see if I can put them in. Had a bit of an interesting  experience, driving over Kangaroo Valley rd, which is very steep and extremely windy, my fuel guage alarmed to say i ws empty. But as soon as I started down the mountain I had a quarter of a tank again!Gave me a bit of a fright tough!Today I am in Berry with the Blue Wrens, a NSW solo group of motorhomers, having a chapter meeting with them at the showgrounds, There is a pacthwork show on at Mittagong over the weekend, so i might try and go to that also. Then I head north to Hazel and Mikes to park the Motorhome before my patchwork cruise. Hope you are all keeping well and are having some relief from the heat. poor SA one extreme to the other.  until next time
