Building ponds and gardening

Our new pond under construction in our parking area at the rear of our homestead. Mr Bangay is so clever with his proportions and design.

It has been the height of activity on our property this week with major projects coming to fruition. After mentioning to my husband my parents were arriving this weekend he also performed a garden blitz in their honour. These are our Plane trees now pollarded for winter.

Our new circular pond is looking lovely, and once stone work has been completed and garden beds and lawns planted, should settle in beautifully. Enjoy your weekend I am off to the kitchen to start cooking to prepare a yummy dinner for my family tonight. x

Snowed in...

A picture paints a thousand words...

Winter comes early

Weather like we are having makes me want to pull out all my winter woollies and bunker down.



We woke to a dusting of snow over the weekend and while it looks pretty is not the kind of weather one wants to be out in.

A day in the garden

I thought I'd share some photos of our little beach and lake at the foot of our garden. I only wish I had more time to come down here and sit and enjoy it's beauty.

It's not often I have the pleasure of spending time in our garden but today was such a perfect day and I happened to be able to have the day free to potter, weed, prune and just enjoy working in our garden.
