Gore & Winton

Not a lot for me to write about for the last day or so, we had a day of on & off showers in Gore and very cold winds so for us it was an enforced rest day.  The local saddle? club had a fun day  organised so we got to see them yoking various horses into a collection of gigs, drays and carriages right next to where we were staying.   In their storage sheds they had a good collection of all sorts of horse drawn vehicles.

We had seen all we wanted to see in Gore so spent the day in the caravan reading, watching TV and doing not much!   We all went across to the Gore Town & Country Club for dinner and had a nice roast pork meal for $12 a head.

Today we drove 50k or so down the road to Winton where we are staying at the local Golf Club.   I’m not sure why we came to Winton, there certainly doesn’t look like much in the area.   Lots of shops closed down or closing in the main street.   It’s one claim to fame seems to be a relationship with the infamous Minnie Deans the murderer.
