The Bush... An Old Fence

And

A New Fence...

Greg and our neighbour have been working on our boundary fence at our south end for the past few weeks and every time I go down there with Greg or he goes I had been forgetting to take the camera... not only did I want you all to see the new fence but the old fence as well... I was totally amazed by it and think you will....

These are a few pictures of the rock formations down the south end of our place... something to do with volcanic rocks???
They remind me of post card photo's... they are having an amateur ''photography competition'' in town soon based on ''our town Mt Magnet'' I have a few photo's that I might put in... they are going to choose 12 photo's for a calendar....

This is my favourite photo... you would have to be there to see this formation as it is quite imposing and many things go through your mind... this area would be a great camping spot so you could explore... good climbing shoes would be needed....

Now.... you see these posts going up through these rocks????? Greg says these have been there since the late 1890's... all hand cut by axe and put right across these formations...

No dirt to dig them into....

Rocks were piled around them in a certain way to hold the post up and then wire twitched around... to see these through the hills and along the ground where it is just far too hard to dig and remember no post hold drill to get them in... amazing to see... the boys left these through the hills for history and put the new fence around the rock formation... no way were they going to attempt to try and put the new fence in where the old was....

The boys have put in 7 kms of new fence and cleared enough room along both side to drive... does look impressive...

And notice the steel posts no wood there and all the holes for the main strainers where done with machinery....
New Additions....

Meet Ivan and Iggy... twin boys of Issy....

It was a cold windy day and the compost was a good place top rest out of the wind while Mum nibbled close by....

We have had another two born this week as well... just need to get close enough to take a photo...
It has been very cold here the past two days... freezing for me as I like the hot summer and today is going to be another very cold day... looks like that inside fire will be going again today hehehehehe chop more wood sweetheart hehehehehe
