The view south from the property over to Wollumbin (Mt. Warning)A long and slow jouney now begins... we intend to over the next few years to build our home, using the very earth on which we live as the basis for the walls (Pise`), but we must first start to repair the land and make it more comfortable to live on. So first up is a shade sail over the front of the cottage (shed) we now live in... it looks like it's going to be a very long, hot summer here on the north coast this year. Next will be the extra water tank and pump to bring the water up from the spring fed dam up to the top of the property which will then gravity feed to the taps around the buildings. can't waste too much of our precious drinking water (from the rain gods). we have already started on the vegie garden (heritage variaties) and planting trees and shrubs. The compost bin and worm farm are also up and running.
Will keep you informed as more progresses. Ciao for now!
wow, sound like you & Charles would have very busy life but fulfil. Wishing all the best come to you both.
