Too much going on tomorrow you have to stay another night. The girls then asked me when I was leaving and I said in the morning. He laughed and said how funny it was and still can picture it happening his name was Jack O’Keefe. they landed in Rochester between some trees and these trees took both wings off their plane. He and his Co got into a bit of trouble and had to land.

I said yes and he then told me that he had a very fond a vivid memory of Rochester. Then an elderly man walked over and put his arm around my shoulders and said” I believe you are from Rochester”. Lots of them made the effort and came to talk to me. the finger food did not stop coming out till 6-15. I only had to buy drinks at the bar the rest was free. 15 of the ladies auxiliary were there and about 18-19 men members. Went to the RSL a bit after 4 and thought that if it didn’t work out I had nothing to lose and still plenty of time to have a swim in the park pool. Went for another walk up and down the main street and very impressed with the town and the people. Friday morning an A Frame caravan club pulled in and I was sounded by lots of them. Had to book another night when I got back and that was ok. Came across the local RSL Sub branch hall and it had a sign out the front that said it was their clubs Christmas break-up Friday afternoon from 4-6-30pm. Booked into the caravan park for the night then went for a walk up the street. Well my one night in Esk ended up 3 nights. RSL Club house, The beautiful building of the Esk Trading Post that to the right of the lamppost they sell” Elegant Junk.” The camp kitchen at the Esk CP A wonderful park run by some young people who joined in with the singing and dancing.then | Nan HYNES ON TOUR Photos– Geoff with his storm shirt on with the Red Deer in the back ground. I was only and hour and a half from my brother Ian in Ormeau so went on to his place. Went to bowls Sunday morning but due to a very heavy shower of rain early in the morning the greens were too wet to play, so I head off from there around 10am. His wife is not into to any sort of footy and he was happy to share his photos. When I went to morning tea next day he was there and he wore his storm jersey and had lots of photos to show me at the games he has gone to. When I was at the RSL break-up and talking to one of the men we got on to NRL and I am a passionate fan of the Storm and he said he was also. Lots of the holiday makers got up and danced and we all joined in with singing lots of the songs. The singers at the caravan park were fantastic. I had a steak sandwich at the RSL BBQ and stayed there for quite a while.

Picnic ( blankets on the ground) !!! Lots of family fun things to do. The Apex night was at the local footy oval and it was a family night. So I would do that on my way to my next destination. When I was at the Apex night one of the ladies asked if I bowled as there was social bowls in the morning at 9-30. So I called into the office again and booked 3rd night. Then at 5 pm Apex Christmas tree was on and they were manning the BBQ so I had to go and catch up with them there and then 6-9-30pm at the caravan park there was a duo from NZ singing 60 and 70 songs in the camp kitchen. Town market in the morning, then they invited me to the Red Deer Café where a few of them were going for coffee at 10am.
