Richmond

The Bushtracker Tassy Mini Muster

"Churchill"

Circa 1845

A beautiful property owned by Angus and Lexie was the venue for the Tassy Mini Muster. It was ideal as we had water, power if needed, and a "Summer House" with an open fire and pool, ideal for "Happy Hour"

It is not far from Old Richmond Town so there was plenty around to keep us occupied.

Not so unusual spit roast in the rain.

A 6.5 ounce gold nugget found near the location where "Welcome Stranger" was found. As it resembles a teddy bear so I named it "Welcome Teddy".

Several of us went down to Salamanca Markets for the day and we were entertained by the filming of Master Chef.

Lexie organised a friend to demonstrate the Thermomix Cooker. It was an interesting kitchen aid and it replaced a number of tools in the kitchen. Note the amount of men in the group.
