Autumn works

It's cooling off, especially in the morning and evening, and the park poplars are thinning out with a dry rustle. Days are beautiful. And we've had rain! Also a local tornado, which we don't want. It hit about 30km north of here and smashed a few houses. There have been several in the last few years (never had them before) but now it seems that's a thing - sudden and small tornados in the North Island. Great.

Meanwhile, we're full speed ahead with house painting. The old house is getting a facelift and will be the yellow/green in the background here. That's the dining room pushout that was part of the new build.


Today the first undercoat has gone on and it's a sparkling bright white. So we contemplated that white for a moment as it looks great against the black of the new house - but probably too glary in the NZ sun. We're staying with the colour. Which will also be bright haha.

New and old house from a marigold corner in a veggie box.

Mish is back on her big fish today, with new spine construction.
