The ongoing work





Bring on the heavy equipment....
But what a mess!!! We have spent two days on the end of garden rakes just leveling the tractor marks.... part of our lovely couch lawn was destroyed but with the results achieved it was well worth the mess...







Here is one of the two trees which overhung our house... very scarey situation indeed .....one good blast of wind and our place would have been flattened.... we now have these great logs we intend to have someone come in and turn them into fence posts...The stump will stay and form part of a outdoor garden setting....







If you look closely you can see the grass plants on the ridge... We intend to remove some more smaller srcub trees.... This will then open up the ridge just a little more...








Well fancy that!!!!!
A nice pile of srub trees just in desperate need of a good FIRE !!!!!!!! I love these days... Getting so excited to see the trees fall and watching in anticipation as they are pushed together to make a bomb fire stack... Happy Days !!!








This is a favourite of mine, just love the new veiw...As you can see by the pile of rubbish this veiw was covered by scrub... We felt very enclosed so after two days of Excavator work we now have a massive veiw reaching across the creek bed and onto our ridge.... We intend to dredge the bottom of this creek bed as it leads around the corner into our large dam... If all goes to plan our house will have a horse shoe dam stretching around the entire front and side....This will more than double it's enormous capacity......Bring on the rain!!!
