Being a glorious day many wandered down into Cressy to take in the sights and others were to go off to several garage sales being held in the area.
Our webmaster Jim had climbed onto the roof of the shed for a better view of our Motorhomes which totalled in excess of forty and found it difficult to capture them all in one photo and the same with the Western Tiers. So, it was that Peter suggested he should go up in one of the local crop duster planes.
My golly goodness "yes" (or something similar) was the reply, so off to the airstrip to catch the plane and take ariel photo's of the Rally site and surrounds.
Now to get to the aircraft parking area you need to go on the gravel airstrip, so it was look left and then right, no worries Mate! nothing there so on we drove. Peter looked in the rear vision mirror and there was a plane that had just landed coming up on the vehicle real quick, so down with the accelerator for there was a need for plenty of speed to stay in front.
Two persons in a plane designed for one was quite an exercise and meant that it was rather difficult to preview the photo's before they were snapped, though not to worry it was a great experience. Though there was a lot of shiacking of Jim as to his health and general welfare on his return leading again to much laughter.

Our Chapter Rally raffle was to assist in raising funds for the ongoing maintenance of the Cressy Swimming Pool, and it was with great pleasure that our host; Veronica was to present our cheque for $250 to the President of the Swimming Pool committee who on receiving the cheque was to thank the Island Wanderers for their kind donation. In all it was a wonderful evening and we were to wander back to our Rally Site like browns cow's, so to speak. Most toddled off to bed and others electing to stay on and play eight ball,cards etc.
Sunday morning was to another fine sunny day and there could be seen groups of members gathered talking about last night and the weekend in general. John and Colleen were to conduct the church service which was well attended, then members again just started to mingle and be happy. Members were happy that at last we had held a Rally with excellent weather for an entire weekend!
It is often said that to gauge the success of a Chapter weekend was whether or not people were quick to leave the site. Here it was nearly noon and only two motorhomes had left with many indicating that they would, at the invitation of the hosts, stay another night.
There is no question that the weekend has to be among the best held this year and the work carried out by our hosts Peter & Veronica has been beyond the norm and ensured that we all had enjoyed the weekend. So may we say that the effort put in by our hosts was exceptional for that we thank them very much for such a wonderful Rally.
Our next Rally is our Christmas Rally at Campbell Town and we look forward to renewing our friendships again at this time.
