A Jolly Outing

Charlie, who is now on his L-plates, wanted to go for a long practice drive so we decided to visit the Hare Krishna farm at Millfield in the Hunter Valley.

Heading out in the QEIII we cruised up the Putty Road, stopped at Garland Valley for some lunch and then via Broke and Wollumbi to Millfield. The farm is in a lush valley and although not as big as the farm at Mt Warning it has a nice atmosphere to it. There were some Indian lads in the temple and we only stayed long enough to have a quick look around as it was getting dark rather quickly in the valley.

We returned home via the M3 freeway and stopped at Tony and Jan Sheridan's for a cuppa and a chat as I had not seen them for about 10 years. It was nice to catch up again.

All in all, about 470 kms practice for Charlie and a great day and one we will remember.
