On the 11th Mommy took the class to another farm that she had never visited the farm. This farm is owned by Alistair and Jeanette Maxwell. It's a low country farm, located right at the base of the popular ski area Mt. Hutt. We drove up the Mt. Hutt access road until we started to get into the clouds. This afforded us an excellent view of the Maxwell farm. They grow beef and sheep and enjoy lots of rain because of the mountains that they are nestled against. On the way home from the Maxwells, we went by way of the Rakaia river gorge. Pictures from the Gorge and a scenic lookout are attached to this post.
The 12th was a day of preparation for the long weekend. While Mommy was in class during the morning, Daddy was busy doing laundry and making last minute preparations. Oh yeah, you wouldn't believe it - but we went to the grocery store again!.......
