Yesterday we headed up to Lancefield to visit Ian and Beverley. Ian is Noel's brother. It was perfect weather for a day in the country.
Mitchell drove the hour and a half and did really well. It is the longest time he has driven in one hit. He also drove home in the dark which was great experience for him.

We headed down to the back of the paddock to see .........
this little girl!
Ian's cow Betsy had a new calf. Her name is Bella and she was born last Thursday. How cute is she!
Ginger and Molly came along for the day. They travelled in the back of the station wagon for the first time together. We were a little worried about how they would go but they travelled very well. There were no growls or snaps by Ginger getting annoyed with Molly.
Ginger is enjoying getting a brush.
I love this photo of Ginger. We've been trying to get a nice photo of her for ages but never could. I think I'll get a copy of this one blown up.
Ian and Nelson were having fun with George the Cockatoo.
George likes to give kisses and eventually Nelson decided to have a go.
We went for a walk into town to have a coffee at my niece Paula's cafe. If you're ever in Lancefield (or even passing through) stop off here for a cuppa!
We tied Molly up when we went into town as we didn't know how she would go not fenced in. But we really didn't need to worry. For the rest of the day she just stayed around the house and didn't run off at all!
Sounds like a lovely day and the perfect weather for it. hugs
