A green and pleasant land

I was surprised this morning that there was nothing on the news that today is the anniversary of 9/11

As my act of remembrance I thought that I would post some photos of more pleasant things.

Bringing in the harvest. A view of one of the fields at the bottom of the garden. I believe that is a Class Lexion 570+ you see on the field there. I will be posting more about that later.

Above is the farm where we picked many kilos of plums. Plums that have been turned into Jam for sale in fund raising for the less fortunate of this fine area that we live.

A view looking down the garden. The trees are starting to show their autumnal colours.

We are not sure what created the crater in the above picture. It can only be seen on the map and from the air. You can reach it by footpath but you would not be able to see the perspective.

Sun shining through the trees at the bottom of the garden. This was taken pretty much at ground level but still from my new toy.

Another shot looking down the garden

More fields on the walk into town.

We will have to make the full walk. Maybe not both ways as we always have the option of talking a cab back home. That is one of the many advantages of living where we do. If we were still in North America to live in such a rural location it would cost a fortune to get a taxi back to where you live. You probably would have to book it in advance and explain to the driver how to get there and back. Here it is just a question of jumping in and telling the driver where you want to go.
