    Road Trip in the North Island

    Hey fullas and fellesas the Mrs, Sean and I have just had a road trip around the North Island. It was a R&R trip (Road and Rest). We left possum trapper behind as he had a pup turning up so he stayed with the olds. It has been three years since a family holiday so the ute was packed with rods,rifles and guns if the occasion showed it self on the road trip.More than one ocassion presented itself but the weopons stayed on the deck of the ute.

    Scenic tour of the North Island and caught up with @Andyanimal39 @Graeme Sturgeon @Pengy @Geezejonsey @falconhell and @Texas walker and @Chris.

    Day one was from Dannevirke over the Napier Taihape highway also called the Gentle Annie.
    Some nice trout fishing waters on the Rangatikei were seen on the way over but unfortunately the trout season was closed for winter spawning.

    We set up camp in Taihape and caught up with @andyanimal31 and his family for a cuppa then later on went to the HQ of the deerstalkers in Taihape for a few drinks with Steve and Andy.

    Then back to base camp for quiet one.

    That tell tale tower came crashing down on me after a nice dinner and sleep, when I had breaky before departing for day two.
