Well bugger me, how easy was that! I still struggle with the Gallery and images, but downloads are great once you've set yourself up!
Anyway, ill use this thread to load up mud maps and other information for the weekend. First of all, here is a mud map of the Recreation Reserve:
http://www.myswag.org/downloads/Mace/Tolmie%20Sports%20Ground.tif (http://www.myswag.org/downloads/Mace/Tolmie%20Sports%20Ground.tif)
In the next week or so I will download a touring guide to Southern Kelly Sites, Beveridge, Avenel & Euroa, so you can visit them on the way if you want.
Now Here:

Lastly, closer to the weekend, Ill download more information on the sites we will visit on the Day Trip, and a touring guide to the Woolshed Valley and Beechworth that you can use if you choose to take a self guided trip to view these areas. Beechworth has a great lolly shop, as well as the renown Bakery.
Now here is the information on Beechworth & Chiltern:

Thanks Mace. The link is a 10meg download which is a bit large. If it could be converted into a PDF or Jpg file it would be smaller.

Hope you don't mind Mace but I converted the sportsground mud map into jpeg format as tif is just too big a download IMO.

Not a problem!
I tried several times but crashed/burnt. ;D

Hi Mace,
Looking at google maps it looks like the graves rd old tolmie rd looks like the better way to get there from Mansfeild towing a caravan, is this correct.
Cheers
:cheers: :cheers:

The Old Tolmie Road is much steeper than the "New" road thru Barwite. The new Road is known as the "Wyndies", but is regularly used by Vans.
Id use the New Road.

Ok, thanks Mace looking forward to meeting you there.

Have to say that we are looking forward to this weekend. The poor camper hasn't been out much lately. Summer is almost here.
-
OK folks, countdown time!
Here, for your enjoyment/inquisitive minds/scrap paper collection are two more files for you to check out.
The first is an overview of the Northern Kelly Sites (Beechworth & Chiltern) that we WILL NOT visit during the local Kelly Country Day Tour. You may wish to take some time either by yourself or perhaps in small groups visiting them on one of the other free days.
Here it is:
http://www.myswag.org/downloads/Mace/Myswag%20Kelly%20Country%20Camp%20Northern1.pdf (http://www.myswag.org/downloads/Mace/Myswag%20Kelly%20Country%20Camp%20Northern1.pdf)
The second is a link/info to a couple of other things happening:
Wangaratta Jazz & Blues Festival - which is also on this weekend. This is both a ticketted and free entry event. The main public stage is free. We usually go every year, but I dont think Ill have time for this one ;D
The Jazz Mass in the Cathederal on sunday morning is great, as is the Blues Stage (costs$$).
Also on is the Mansfield High Country Festival, much closer to home, 15 minutes down the road.

Stay tuned for more info, Im working on some "entertainment" for Saturday night at the moment.
:cheers:

Better update these links Mace, most don't work with the new server ???
-
Ok, struggling here, have I missed something in the posts for the new server that addresses the FTP downloads?
When I select the old http://www.myswag.org/gallery (http://www.myswag.org/gallery)
link I get to the parent directory, but there are no user download listings??
Any ideas?
-
The gallery is the same except for the new address. You just need to edit the first part of the link.
http://gallery.myswag.org (http://gallery.myswag.org)
And the FTP is not setup yet. I will look into that for you.
-
Firefox is looking into the issue. Hopefully will be fixed 2day.
