Following in Henry Lawson's footsteps

"It will be a return to the good old days today when 17 horse drawn carts pull up for a drink at Wellington's oldest watering hole, 'The Lion of Waterloo.'

"The party may be under escort from four support vehicles with hazard lights blazing but everything else will remain authentic.

"This is the sixth consecutive year the cavalcade will pass through Wellington in what is known as the 'Henry Lawson Pilgrimage.'

"The group travel between Gulgong and Grenfell, alternating in direction each year, in remembrance of one of Australia's best-known poets."
