We have a quick wander though town then go up to Raincheck Lounge for lunch. Hannah meets us there for a coffee. Lovely to see her and catch up on her news.
On the way home we stop in at the Hobart Tip shop to see what sort of "cubby"house building materials they have...
Tom and I go for a ride/run to the oval when we get home.
John and Tom build some more bookshelves...
....then its dinner and watching David Attenborough's Galapagos series...Tom is enthralled!
The week gets underway with plenty of orders to do.
We drop Tom down to scouts then go up on the hill for a lovely walk. Lovely to see the green coming back after the rain.We enjoy discovering new areas.
Walnut Tree
It's still dark in the morning on my walks these days...but not cold yet.
The day passes quickly with orders to do. John makes up a new batch of Qwenling...our Natural Insect repellent as we have now received the main ingredient from UK.
It is a warm sunny day..
He also makes a start on preparations to make an Archangelica Oint.
After work/school we go up on the hill for picnic dinner as it is so warm...then have a walk about..
Salmon Farm being towed along the Huon River
I do my usual walk out to Martin's Point later in the evening and enjoy the moonlight.
We have a pretty quiet day. I use the time to update our medicines list.
By late afternoon there is a wild wind blowing...
We go up on the hill and have a challenging walk in the strong winds..
The skies darken in the evening and we get some rain..
We harvest apples and pears from the Commiunity Garden then do some weeding and digging of garden beds..before a cuppa together..
We have had a few orders to get out today...
Before long Thomas is in from school.
Hannah heads back to town for work tonight and over the next few nights..
We prepare for our trip tomorrow up to Derwent Bridge (near Lake St Clair).
We will be searching for swamp/marsh where there is sphagnum moss....so we can harvest the water that has been seeeping through the moss.
We will stay overnight on Friday..
