It's Sunday 22nd April and the sunrises are spectacular most mornings recently. As we arrive at our gate we look directly East and it's a beautiful way to start the day....
Over the weekend we had a person reverse into our car at the caravan park while we were having dinner. As they say a new car doesn't stay new for long and seems to be an attraction to somehow have damage done to it.....
We have contractors and also council people working on Douglas Road. We are having so many deliveries soon that we rang and asked for work to be done. Well what a response with in one day you say. Lucky for us the money is free or maybe it has something to do with elections soon but they are doing all the roads in the district now.
One of the five drains put in to help our 750 metres of gravel road drain better......
Today we had planned to go fishing but both of us had other things on our mind this morning and forgot to buy bait. However it is early and we pack up Chucky and head to the beach front. Low tide at the moment but excellent to get around the foreshore. This is looking west back up the entrance of Flaggy Rock Creek....
The foreshore of our property about 1 km....
An old car John remembers used to be in the bush but is now part of the ocean bed....
The entrance of Stockyard Creek which forms the southern boundary of our land.....
This is looking back from the southern tip of beach front nick named Nevie's Point.......
A good fishing spot in Stockyard Creek.Notice that this tree is not going down without a fight there can't be much holding it onto the bank.....
View West towards the mountains....
And people wonder why we want to keep them out!!!!!!!
Water pump is now installed a hose to work with.....
After our trip to the beach and exploring for the morning Jenelle gives Chucky his first wash......
Back into the building process and we are very excited about creating a corner inside. For neatness we are bending the iron around the corners. Of course this has an added challenge because none of the former posts or rooms are square.....
Our kitchen window looks like a painting.....
Jenelle working with a Reciprocating saw and cutting down some creeper grown over the Pride of India trees struggling to survive. Jenelle wants the Pride of India back so she works on this while John is doing metal work....
One of the welcomed visitors......
All the rubbish cut down and burnt we are preparing the site for some deliveries this week....
Little by little.....
One and a half rooms.....
Our bathroom window.....
Preparation begins for the poring of our the rest of the slab for the Studio. It takes us a couple of days to think this through and make sure we have it ready for Thursday. Now lets hope the weather holds as this will be the biggest truck we have on our place so far....
