Around the ridges

Most of my recent blog posts, I hope justifiably, have been about the Trainbarn construction progress, but there are a lot of other things going on around Whistlestop, so I thought I'd post some photos of a different part of the property.

General maintenance, particularly mowing, is an on-going process.  Fortunately our grass stops growing during Winter with the frosts, however with good rain recently and warmer temperatures, the last week or two I've been catching up with all the mowing and tidying-up.  Picking up all the fallen sticks and branches and mulching all the fallen leaves is hard work, but the end result is that it looks great.

This is the dam at the front of our place, looking towards the front gate.  The Trainbarn is up the track to the right of the photo.

I enjoy mowing, though not particularly when it's 33 degrees like it was today, and dry as chips.  The end result is definitely worth the effort though!!
