Although I did not see too many local names in the paper Monday morning, I am assuming that many of you were away collecting your Queen’s Birthday Honours on Saturday.
Greetings all, well we are already nearly into the 6th Month of the year, how time flies.
Around 30 members turned up at Centennial Park for a local outing on Saturday under cloudy skies, but still pleasant enough for a walk or run around the neighbourhood.
Saturday was down as a mystery outing and so it proved. It had been brought forward from June as the landowner was concerned it could be icy underfoot then. So it was ironic being brought forward to May and a rogue snowstorm blows through on Friday night.
A frolic through Sheepshead Station to Fruitlands is usually a popular outing on the harrier calendar. And so it proved again this year with a full bus load making the trip to Mitchells Cottage.
Saturday was another typical harrier day, blue skies and sunshine. 40 something members turned up for a walk or run to Little Valley, out the back and beyond the clock on the hill.
Well, it appears you cannot believe the weather forecasters. A week ago according to them it would be raining in Arrowtown on Saturday. Just as well we have our own local weather god.
Well there could certainly be no complaints about the weather on Saturday, as a last touch of summer brushed Central Otago for a warm sunny day in the fresh air.
Well Easter weekend has been and gone. It obviously offered a last chance to get stuck into the garden, get away for a long weekend, go hunting for Easter eggs or bunnies.
