A hirsute old hippie who is trying to age disgracefully. This blog is purely an attempt to share the beauty of Cambrian ,particularly the seasons ,with all those wonderful people who sadly mostly only stay for a short visit. It lays no great claims for its photographic or literary content,only a desire to share.

The warm before the cold !
Evening all, sorry that it is so long since the last blog ,it is that strange period between autumn and winter ,nearly all the fruit is picked and what isn't the chooks are getting .The days are lovely and warm ,just made for cutting tracks in the broom and planting elm suckers or any other trees that I can re-locate .It has been so moist this year and so fruitful ,seed-wise that I have gathered up SACK FULLS of acorns and just broadcast them by hand into the rougher spots ,watch that space in about 4yrs .I have also planted a certain number to see how they go .Under Antons trees there is just a carpet of seedlings ,but I never find them very easy to transplant .Look at what I am cooking up tonight ,Big Cone pines ,to get some seeds ,you can see a seed in front of the cone ,they are a beautiful pine tree and I'm keen to get a bunch growing .The pond is my big worry at the moment ,getting it built up before the winter ,but it WILL happen ....Cheers Bob
PS does anyone else find a little irony in the juxtaposition of these two Aussie stamps?
