Well, summer is on the way, and one of our drawcards as far as guests are concerned is our garden...Not too many guests don't make some mention of the garden in their reviews.
Personally I hate gardening!!! To me, it was never one of lifes ambitions to end up on my hands and knees with a bloody gardening trowel in my hand!
And the daunting thing is there is more than half an acre of it here to keep under control.
But I don't look at the 'big picture'......I would slit my throat if I did. I just pick a small area at a time and say, 'that is my project for today' .
Here was todays project when I took this photo at 2.30 this afternoon........
and this was three hours later when I reckoned I had earned a red wine or two!
This was yesterdays project........
It's all like pieces of a jigsaw puzzle...I just take on a bit at a time, and guests really do enjoy being a part of it. Particularly the many Asian guests we have had who live in apartment buildings and never get to sit in a garden!
I hate it but, at the end of the day I love it, I love being able to sit back and say....I did that!
Tomorrow, another piece of the jigsaw.....bring it on!
Cheers.......Rob
