Camping & 4X4 Adventure at Newnes : 11-12 December 2004

Brad and I went up to Newnes for the weekend with the SunnySide Up 4x4 Club ... we met Fiona & Mark with their cute son Caleb, Andrew and his son Scotty, Jeff and Mal ... as we arrived for the night at camp, a big storm blew in and we had to pitch tents in the dark and wet ... I thought it was going to be a nightmare weekend ... but once the sun came out, we had a great time!! We played golf, BBQ'd and did a bunch of 4WD bushwhacking ... much to the delight of the boys with their toys ... but it was not without some drama ...

Waiting for the crew to arrive ...




Ahh ... camping ... now that's the life ...



Playing a round of mini golf ... Jeff gives it his best shot ...



Thrills and Spills ... Brad is going ... going ... gooooooone ... thank goodness I had jumped out to film just prior to this event!!!










Then it was Mark's turn ...







More 4x4 action ... and drama ...











I love the wild Cosmos that grows everyone ...




On our way home ... we were confronted by one of the biggest cloud banks I have ever seen ...
