Down by the riverside

We're pretty familiar with the bits of the South Pine that flow through Samford and Bunya. But this Sunday our hares introduced us to some of the very scenic lower reaches through the Bald Hills area. It was good snake country and good snake weather - Hot to trot trotted over a couple of them. One, she thought, might have been a taipan, but as she didn't roll it over to count its ventral scales we will never know....

Cash Converta lived up to her usual high standard in the nosh department, and our younger members made full use of the Pine Rivers Park play equipment....The circle was almost drowned out by the noise of the lorikeets coming home to roost above our heads. Thanks, hares - a great venue, run and meal!

Next week is a pretty significant and rather sad occasion - it will probably be the last Samford run hosted by Wizbanger, Hot to trot and Co - at least for a while. Soon they will be upping sticks and moving to that Sodom and Gomorrah of the South - Canberra. Let's hope it's not for too long....

And the week after that will be our 2011 Halloween event. Hasn't the year flown by? Check the archives for last year's pics - and click here for this year's promo!

One of our Halloween hares is still a no-name, and we'll rectify this in a fortnight. In the meantme, here is some evidence that he can be pretty darn scary when he dresses up:
