WEdnesday week 4 - not too hot today...

Hehe.. not too hot to day as far as the weather is concerned.. lovely actually and hope to morrow will be the same.. nice !

Wonderful sunrise and with a nice cup of coffee something to enjoy, early in the morning (as in 6 am) Took a lovely pic to celebrate the new day..

From the house upwards.. future guestcottage, and milking shed which will turn into a studio apartment




View from the 'deck' and future stables in the background, most of those tall trees will go, enhances the view of the mountain behind it with the protea's, and the faithful 'bakkie'






So to day.. the wall with the new windows was screeded,.. took the entire day and the pebbles for the concrete were delivered with a huge truck.. opened up and unloaded and ...... DUST everywhere.. was too late to close the house, so a mist moved through it, and left it at that.. its dusty inside,, again ;-))

Attached some hooks to the terrace doors to keep them from blowing off their hinges, and sorted out the water system for the washing machine and dishwasher,  on the outside of the pantry, will not be seen in future because creepers will cover that up later

Went better and faster than anticipated (pic taken during, not after) so assembled the new 'braai' and used that just now. Neighbor popped round to announce he was off to Caledon and did I need anything from the village.. yes... some steaks for  the braai please.. and just as I had taken a bath and lit the thing, the meat was delivered, .. so ate like my life depended on it, was sooo hungry..


The new braai, may I use it often , with friends it always tastes better but for now it was great !

And now a rose.. lovely wine from a nearby winery, one has to support the locals of course.. and tired so off to bed. Sleep welll... zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
