Chores

A hot start to the day. The Australian summer is really starting to kick in and a heatwave is coming! After breakfast Darryl received a lesson in driving the sit-on-top mower before spending the morning cutting paths through the grass. The long grass hides the snakes ... so best keep it short! Now our friends 2 beautiful dogs can walk through with less chance of meeting a poisonous critter. Darryl did manage to stall a few times and run out of petrol!
Christine spent the morning helping to clear branches from the walled garden and move them to the end of the farm. A well deserved lunch was served to the workers, before round 2!

In the afternoon Christine continued clearing branches
whilst Darryl helped build a cover for the vineyard to stop the birds eating the grapes. It was hot work but an essential job to stop the grapes from being eaten.

I sky. The moon looked amazing. We could see lots of craters and the whole moon appeared to be glowing orange!
