DECEMBER 2024

Storm Darragh did some damage, wrecking about 12 trees, mostly pines. All cleared away by Paul with a little help from family, so visitors who know us will see a few changes! So, opportunities galore (but sad face). See before and after:

​

Above, Pinus radiata 20 yrs old, then fallen.
Below: Pinus patula nearby, also down, taking a
Picea ormorica with it.

Below, Liz's last 2 Pinus patulas (Mexican pines) just near the veg garden.
You can see the chimes in both pictures. Maybe no more pines?

OK, some other casualties include (l to r) a Eucalyptus, a huge bird cherry (which JUST missed a Taihaku cherry, whew) and a lovely Magnolia Merrill.

Here's Paul, working away like the Trojan he is!   
Oh, and see the Pinus wallichiana that the P. radiata wrecked. Very sad face.  
Never mind, we have wood for the stove forever and its all opportunities!
