SAID:
I
had a solo trip to “Port” (as the locals call Port Macquarie).
The scenic beaches are always a drawcard for me, especially with
this glorious sunny weather we are having. Chilly to start with, several frosts over the last week, but turning out beautiful once it
warms up.
I
walked around the shops & a small mall before heading to Aldi for
groceries. The
final stop for the day was the Douglas Vale Homestead & Winery.
This little piece of history close to the town & is run by
volunteers. The homestead dates from 1859, & some of the vines
are from the original plantings. I had a guided tour of the old house
& tasted a few of the wines, purchasing a couple.

HE SAID:
My morning was spent using the blower around the outside of the house, squeezing juice from the tasty, sweet, juicy oranges a neighbour gave us, and a few menial household chores.
