A very satisfying day today working at
Whistlestop. Nothing particularly
special, just mowing and brushcutting- maintenance- but I think the reason that
I enjoyed it so much (apart from the beaut weather) is that I was working down
the front of our property. This of
course is the area where the future train museum will be, and also it’s a lot
more developed than the area ‘up top’ where our cottage is, where I’ve been
spending most of my time recently.
Although there is still plenty to do at the
front as far as the general grounds development and infrastructure is
concerned, there is enough work already completed that it is not too mammoth an
undertaking to ‘finish’ it off, which I find encouraging!! A few days here, a few days there, and it’ll
be quite presentable for visitors to the Trainbarn, etc.
As I mentioned in my previous post I am
having to work mostly up the top near the cottage in order to make the area
safer in the event of a bushfire.
Although I had planned to do this ‘one day’, it is probably a good thing
that I am being forced to do it now, and to finish
it, as I probably never would have otherwise. My normal working style has been to do a bit
here and a bit there, knowing that one day it’ll all come together, but I think
I need to remain focused on just one task, and finish it, if I’m ever going to
get Whistlestop ready for visitors.
A very satisfying and enjoyable day!!
