Call that a river?

Many who go over the big long high bridge that spans the South Pine at Cash's Crossing would be amazed to find that a couple of km downstream the river is a trickle going through a few little pipes in the middle of a horse paddock. But so it is. And when it really floods, then a lot of the turf farm and sports fields we passed this last Sunday must be a spectacular sight - a broad stretch of shining water.

Our hares took us on a flat riparian walk and run along not just a stretch of the South Pine, but also a pretty section of Albany Creek. The runners added a diversion upstream to Turtle Cove - but the turtles were feeling too cold to swim up and say hello.

Back at the new picnic area beside the horse paddock Cash Converta treated us to a huge and tasty feast of pasta, salad, a gluten-free option, a vege option -and dessert! What a spread!...as the B said to the A.... Many thanks to our hares for a well-marked run/walk, and a great meal!

Everyone well wrapped up:
