Scout

John came to the Probus meeting at Kingsgrove on Monday where, after the official meeting, a speaker from Sydney Water gave a talk on recycling water -how the desalination plant at Kurnell worked to households using water and ways of saving.

Diane came over to see the handcraft that Katrina sent and she admired it. I wish I had more experience in the bit I had to do.

The hens are now roaming free and not only are weeds being eaten but their heads go thru the fence to get the nearest lettuce or broccoli. We are getting one egg daily.

Thursday was reconnaissance day as the leader Kay had to do a pre walk and asked for volunteers. I said yes and as John was home, he too became a scout. We walked approx. 12 km from Bardwell Valley station thru bushland and then along the Cooks river to Campsie. We were very glad to get home and rest the legs. One offshoot was to Nanny Goat Hill and it was aptly named. When the official walk is on next Friday thats the bit I'm going to miss and stay at the bottom.

We had afternoon tea at Louises where we caught up with all the news. All plans for Louise's wedding are going to schedule (end Oct. in Tamworth)
