Well the Cherry Blossom is starting to fall from the tree's now, they still look gorgeous but it wont be long till they are bare. We have three tree's two sweet Cherry as you come through the main gate & one morrello Cherry at the end of the driveway, just past the outhouse lol. The Morrello cherries get compoted in jars & we are still enjoying the ones from last years crop! can't wait for the sweet Cherries Mmmmmm!
Soon the Lilac tree will be out in bloom, it's all in bud now, so we will still have lovely colour as you come in the gate as it's next to the Cherry. It's lovely to see all the leaves coming out on the trees now, most of the blossoming is over. Spring is a lovely time here as anywhere but as we are surrounded by countryside to see it all coming back to life is amazing. The downside is alot of the view disappear as the leaves fill the tree's :( but other views (of which there are plenty) are even more beautiful.
We had a very productive day yesterday. I have now filled 4 wheelbarrows full with weeds & yesterday decided it was time to clear round the water feature, as we couldn't see it! It took hours but I cleared a large area all round the feature which is where we sit in the mornings for breakfast & breaks, so I feel really virtuous now :D
Nigel finished the drive & dumped the camocks then secured the big garage gates, as he dug the ground out the security bar was in!!
So after I cooked a chilli (I had a craving!) we both collapsed knackered & aching in the evening LOL
The best though is we heard he has the driving job Woop Wooop, Wey Hey, soooo happy! Now we can live here & do odd jobs between which will pay for our own renovation!
So grateful now we can get on with living our dream!!!! :D
"Oh happy day, oh happy dayayay, oh happy day"
