Robbie and Brian Duck: October began with everyone recovering from the Royal Far West Charity Drive. The week’s drive over the Liverpool Plains was a great success for all those involved and we raised $13,000 for the Royal Far West.
The October drive was a weekend at Spring Ridge, hosted by Bruce and Vicki Donnelly. On Saturday afternoon we drove through the pine forest, a place where you could easily get lost if you didn’t have a guide. Then on Sunday morning we drove out to Goran Lake with totally contrasting driving conditions, vast stretches of smooth roads and tracks with great views of rich farmland. This lake covers over 30,000 acres when full and can appear and disappear over night, similar to Lake George near Canberra. Saturday night proved to be a very enjoyable evening, capably catered by Vicki and family. A great weekend was had by all for our last drive for the year. Many thanks must go to the Donnellys for a great weekend.
Our last event for the year was to be the Christmas party on November 26 hosted by John and Carol Scanlon at their property near Bundella. However widespread flooding meant it had to be put off. The plan is to have it as a New Year party now.
2011 was a great year for driving, with a wide range of drives in varied and spectacular locations. We look forward to 2012 to be an even better year for carriage driving, if that could be possible!
