Hi All,
Your weary blogger greets you.
First up thanks to Susan for the audio & video on last nights blog. I am just about to add the video once it has been shrunk.
Susan's main task today was prepping and painting the deck rails outside Ann's bedroom. She also packed gift baskets, raked my grass slashings and cooked dinner apart from the fish.
I did brush cutting, mowing and clearing around the water tanks. I also filleted and cooked the fish. The fish was an Atlantic Salmon netted by Ann's young helper Aidan. They were actually just out the front of the house in the bay close enough to have a shouted conversation to Ann up the hill.
Ann picked up the self propelled mower, a Toro, this afternoon. I read the destructions tonight and will give it a spin tomorrow. Later in the afternoon I drove to Kingston to finish our Christmas day food shopping and fill the fuel containers for use over the next 2 days.
Tea was latish as Ann was preparing for the markets tomorrow. Mind you with daylight saving we had tea on sundown so I guess it wasn't that late!
We discussed our plans with Ann tonight i.e staying here but going away for a few days at a time and then returning. She was happy with that and has suggested she can "loan" us out to other hosts to broaden our experience while we would still be based here. Sounds like fun!
Anyway it is now late 1130 so I am putting my head on the pillow.
night folks
Cheers Simon
Ducklings at Parsons bay. The cleaner "littler" ones were the babies when we were there.
