2022-06 Mudgee Long Weekend Run Cars and People
Our Mudgee Long Weekend was all about driving our historic cars and enjoying times with club members. The photos here were mostly taken in Gulgong and Hill End - former gold mining towns. People in the photos taken on Saturday and Sunday were 'all rugged up' due to the low temperatures and the chilly winds. Our travel days, Friday and Monday, were much milder.
