Day Five - Burnham

Another day on the road. I didn't get moving very early. Not much to write about today.
The picture is of one of the vehicles parked and leaving. I guess that stop on the outskirts of the town - would be pretty hard to park that in any town.
Headed away from Waimate around 10-30, and headed towards Timaru.
Called into see my cousin Denise for about an hour for a catch up.
Another call to see Glenn from the Air Force. He has some health issues but looks pretty good for 78.
On to Temuka. At the pottery shop I had debated about buying a towel rail for my bathroom and decided this time I was going to buy it. Guess what? They didn't have one! I wasn't meant to buy it...!!
Popped in to see an old Air Force corporal, Denise Anderson/Jost. Denise will 90 in Dec. She was so pleased I popped in. I would ask any AF people passing the main st of Temuka to pop in and say hello. She doesn't see many people these days and like I said was very happy to chat to people. Wish I had longer with her.
I am now at my cousin Glenice's. I went past Burnham Army camp to get to her place. A few memories of my time in the Air Force when the army trained us. It was the middle of winter and I have never been so cold for so long in all my life..!
It looks like nice modern barracks now days that will be very warm I bet.
Sorry the photo of the big rig hasn't turned out. So no photos today
It will be Christchurch tomorrow.
