It was certainly a great first day for our exhibition. Stock is going at a rapid rate, and there was lots of chatting going on at the rear out in the fresh air in the spacious safe surroundings as folk catch up. Nice to meet Nepean members visiting and to catch up with you Ken, keeping Watto on his toes! Looking forward to tomorrow. :wave:

G'day Guys,

As promised here are a couple of shots from my visit to the exhibition. For give my photo skills, I have invested in a new camera and I'm still getting the hang of it. Couple photos are terrible due to the flash. Hope you enjoy the trees :tu:

Thanks so much for the pictures Keels (not Watto )! Excellent. I am not sure what they are but I am immediately attracted to 6733, and 6704. And the maple, 6690.
Watto - I’m sure you’ll have excellent photos too!
