Valerie's Birthday

It seems to be becoming a habit that the Nelson cousins meet for each others birthdays. Claire (Jean's daughter), Valerie, (Bill's daughter) and Glenda, (Nellie's daughter) met up to celebrate Valerie's 70th.  We all  travelled down to Yinnar in the Latrobe Valley for the occasion.
Barry and Valerie hosted us for the occasion.
Following a day of talk and excessive amounts of food, including a magnificent dinner, Barry conducted a tour of the area including the defunct and soon to be defunct power stations.  There will be years of work ahead decommissioning and removing the massive Hazelwood station.
The Loy Yang station is an imposing structure that still has over 10 years to go.  Apparently there is a debate over the removal of Hazelwood  which makes its presence evident wherever you are in the valley.
