Sunday last week...

Sunday of last week, DH went off to golf as per usual and I programmed the GPS (SatNav) and headed off to Old Petrie Town. This is like an historical village where lots of old buildings have been 'rescued' from demolition and have been relocated in this area. 
I had been a bit hesitant about driving there as it seemed a complicated route, but it ended up being quite easy...get  on the right road and just follow it! 
Each Sunday there are markets at Old Petrie Town but I was there for something else...
One of our friends is in a band and this band, Hot Rod Deville, were playing at the hotel in Old Petrie Town. There were quite a few of us who were there to give our support and have a fun afternoon listening to music of 'our era' :-). 
This is the deck where we lunched and then sat and listened to the music. 

Because it had been raining earlier in the day, the band set up in the pergola...(which is used for weddings)

Our friend Glenn is the guitarist on the right in this photo...
The drummer and another guitarist...
And the lead singer...
The boys practise a few times each week and the results are impressive...a great sound! 
Apparently live music in years past, was a feature at Old Petrie Town, but this is the first band to perform there in quite a while. Hopefully they will be back soon! It was a lovely 3 hours.
