Hi Mavis!

Wow… crazy busy down here… when the weather plays nice tho! So much rain this season!!!

When its stopped for a bit we have been out madly putting in gardens, building fences (pallet fence!!), started building a rock wall and just generally trying to get things under control!!
Ha! I need an army of WWOOFers!!

All things seem to be growing really slowly. Its not just us here in Tassie either. Other parts of the country also seem to be suffering from lack of progress too. We just need a good few weeks of warm weather to give things a chance. And maybe a tad less wind!!!!!! (It’s the wind that has been driving me doo-lally!)

I have extended the vegetable garden quite a lot – big new area in old duck yard. Now that we have access to the bore water, we don’t have to be stingy about what we can put in the ground to grow! (And at the same time still enjoy regular showers! Haha!)

Anyway – just dropping in to say hi, and adding a bunch of spring colour for you to enjoy. Our garden has been really putting forth some pretty flowers in the past month!

I enjoy watching your autumn garden – its my favourite time of year, although right now I am so happy its spring as I am very very very much looking forward to the summer days again!

Cheers,
Lisa
