Thankfully last night we could hear the wind but it wasn't affecting us. Nice little sheltered spot.
Once we had packed up we headed to the Glouchester Tree $11 park entry to go look at the tree, glad we had our annual pass. James climbed the tree and I let Rena climb about 10 rungs before she climbed down. The wind was howling so we watched the tree sway as James got to the top and back down again.
We then went to the Bicentennial Tree, and James went half way up, as it was bitterly cold and Rena was hungry I headed back to the car to make a start on lunch whilst watching James in the tree. Once again $11 park entry to look at a tree. Go annual pass. :)
James came down and joined Rena and I whilst the kettle boiled, was nice to have a bit of protection so we could boil the kettle. It was Bloody Cold!!!!!
James found out once he was down the bottom that there was a geocache up the top of the tree. But he didnt go back up the tree, something about legs, sore, other tree :) I shall leave it at that. :)
We had lunch and a nice hot cuppa and then headed back down the highway, very beautiful forest drive. Many tall trees around these parts.
We stopped at the Mt Burnside Rest Area and it rained and on off, so we stayed in the camper and occasionally between the showers had a look at the local birds that were teasing James and his camera. The temperature just kept dropping and getting cooler and cooler.
Fast and easy soup and toast for dinner tonight, too cold to stay out here to long to cook tonight. Oh and the rain too. :) ahhh the joys of cooking outside in the elements.
