On Friday morning we set-up at the Ashburton Domain right next to an awesome playground.

In the winter time our beloved Madame Feather died so this weekend we had a pot-luck dinner in her honour.

Here is an interview I did with Madam Feather last season. Thanks Feather.

Last season we had some trouble with local kids stealing stuff, so we took turns patrolling through the night. It was a fun weekend full of laughter and play, and it just kept on going with a sleep-over with Tiwai and Lettie on Monday night. That was the last straw for me, I came home so tired and sick but I did have fun!

Dad fixed the truck and we finally left Ashburton on Tuesday afternoon. We ended up at Peskys park with Sue and Dave near Geraldine.

Our friends Nicole and her two little boys came to camp with us and we explored Mt Peel forest together marveling at the giant Totaras. It was little boy hell!

The Dragon boys!

Next weekend Timaru. I will get to see Cashlym (Salem).
