STANLEY MOSES ROSS
Stanley Moses Ross was born this morning at 5-43am weighting 8lb 11oz.
Son of Isaac Ross and Arnia-perhaps another Crusader or Highlander?
The above photo was taken at the beach at Surfers Paradise when Isaac was over there playing for the Highlanders against the Reds.
Isaac played for Canterbury last year and has been playing for the Highlanders this season.
We wish them all the very best.

What a Surprise?
Greetings from Culverden-the Place with the Big Sky
Well what can I say?
We were all enjoying Autumn with its beautiful colours,and next minute we have this!
Duck shooting starts tomorrow,so some people will be happy.
We have been very busy with the Bed and Breakfast and have met some great
people from all walks of life.
One couple from Nelson had just finished cycling the Rail Trail in Central
Otago,while another couple were looking to buy a dairy farm.
We also had Donald and Dougal cousins from Wanaka staying-it was great to catch up with them again.
We have five men staying for the weekend-they are duck shooters-so the weather will be to their liking.
That's all for now
Keep Warm
Deirdre

I grew up on the Cameron family's Otematata Station in a remote and beautiful area of North Otago high country, and also maintain a blog of that interest of a more nostalgic nature inc. photos from a recent 100 yr. centennial held in March 2008 ... more>>
