Gidday All


Tassie winterland.

Our winter in Tassie is drawing to an end, well the season is changing at least. We have survived minus temps for days on end and cold rainy days with high winds and snow falls. The cold and gloomy weather for days and sometimes weeks have been made bearable by the comfort of the wood fire and shelter of the workers cottage we have at our disposal thanks to the generosity of our friends on this farm. They have opened up their home to us in this difficult time. As a thank you and a way of paying our way I have put my carpentry skills to use and done some much needed repairs and renovations to the little cottage. From repairing a rotted out back wall to rejuvenating the kitchen.  It also gives us something to do over the long months of isolation imposed on all of us lately.


Still dont know when well be on the road again but we are making the most of it all. while the weather has been at times terrible there are moments of glorious days and we can say we have experienced Tassie in all her moods.

Just a fwe pics of oue winter home.







  
Stay safe and well.

  3. I love what yas have done to your cottage - what a fabulous way to spend winter! It's a beautiful place to be - will be hard to leave?
    It's already getting hot up here, and our first move is over, house is sold. 3 weeks til we get the keys to our new house, and the painter starts 6am the next morning. The new floor coverings go down the second the paint's dry and I am excited to be buying another new home...but sometimes I think how nice it would be to have a 'delivery van' that takes me anywhere I want to go, but at least we get to see the pics! Thank you for sharing!
