Had a quiet Sunday recently so decided to do a short drive north.
Always want to go to Gosford Car Museum and Ken Duncan Gallery

Museum was great, in the old west Gosford Bunnings & packed full of a wide variety of vehicles.
Ken Duncan gellery also worth a visit, a few prints there that we would love to have hanging at home. But at around $4K they would need a prominent position. But we are discussing a purchase. Going to Ularu next month so will try & copy some pics & see what I can come up with.

Anyway onto a small selection of pics:



















And Ken Duncan Gallery



Had a jigsaw of one of his prints with an invitation to help finish it, DW had a go while we were waiting for video to start in his thearter. Found 4 pieces!!

Actually came back via old Pacific Highway (along with a heap of bikers)

Amazing how we coped using that road before the motorway opened.

OPH is a nice trip,  car or bike, back then the traffic would only have been about 10 % of what it is now.

      Caloundra, Queensland.
In 1967 I drove down it from Newcastle to Sydney in a VW Beetle with surfboards on the roof in  extremely high cross winds.
THAT was fun.
