Eggbert's Travels

Tuesday 3^rd May 2016

SHE SAID:

I had a quiet day, with Geoff flitting around the place with Val, & doing odd jobs.

The weather does seem to be cooling down now, & becoming quite windy, so it's nice to be inside hibernating from it, though it is still bright & sunny.

The National Arboretum looking to Black Mountain

My OTT colours of Canberra

The information centre & conference centre at the Arboretum-

As you can see the trees are very small. The arboretum has only been going since 2003/04 after

the devastation Canberra bushfires swept through the pine forest that used to be here. It was decided not

replant pine forests in the area again.

HE SAID:

It was off to Queanbeyan with Mum in the morning. The Canberra Tannery, which is actually in ACT, and a smallgoods place satisfied Mum. Then we went down to see Dad.
