CRESWICK

Here we parked amidst the leafy trees and lawns and were reunited with the rellies.
We had a lovely time, sometimes sitting around a fire, sometimes in the quaint camp kitchen, overall though winter had set in, but we acted as hardy souls (for the time being).
During the days we explored Creswick - watched a bike race - drove to Anderson's Flour Mill went on a conducted tour and increased our knowledge of flour milling over 150 years.
On our drive we saw 15 - 20 heaps of tailings, where in years gone by people had been looking for lead.
On one drive to Buningyong we went to a shopping centre for lunch, I bought a pair of ear muffs, they came in very handy in that wintry weather !
Another day we sought the Creswick Woollen Mill, the last mill of its kind in Australia, particularly loved the Alpaca woollen products, too exy for my purse, and decided the Alpacas hanging around in the paddock were not as attractive as 'Tony' who lives at Chris and John's farmlet.
All too soon the time was up and C and J had to leave, however on their way home they found the grave site at Bendigo, containing Thomas Thomas Rundle and some of the family.
