Another blog just for Pete….

Because you are away from home and because no one else will find this interesting BUT the two major trees at the bottom of our garden are in the process of being chopped down and because I am stuck here minding the chooks who’ve had to be temporarily relocated to the shade shed, I’ve been documenting the whole thing!

Actually, it’s fascinating. Watching these 2 guys fell two whopping 90ft trees, I’m mesmerised. First of all they are fit, very fit, not a patch on my husband of course but watching them hand over fist hauling themselves up and down that tree all day wielding a chainsaw?!! It’s frikking brilliant entertainment.

But as I said, this blog Pete is for you. Before and after pics of our veges shaded and then pics after…… BATHING IN GLORIOUS SUNSHINEEEEEEE!!!!! It is going to be a bumper harvest this year.

AHA! Here he is….

Finally got around to taking some pics of Lou and Ben’s new baby boy Leo. He weighed 3.2kg and is called Leo Zekiel Powles.

He looked the spit image of Nova when she was born except slightly less pretty in a 'cos i'm a boy' baby way. Oma was praying hard for a hint of ginger hair but I think it is firmly blonde.

What you talkin bout Willis?
