Another Soggy Welcome

We were up to Fossils Retreat again on Thursday 29 October. Some visible progress in that the concrete pad for our garage has been poured, and also, the heavens opened the night before :

A somewhat waterlogged drive. We do have a final coat of compacted gravel to come after all the tradespeople's vehicles have visited

The day was mainly spent with visits from electricians and plumbers, and another enlightening explanation of the workings of the space-age septic system we are required to have from our installer. He will also put the first of our water tanks in. (2nd water tank = Stage 6). We broke for lunch and met with Ian and Hugh (at Bambina, Main Road, Carterton - good - great risotto) for their belated birthdays, then back to the property for more meetings. Tended to the plants, stomped around in the numerous puddles, then went home.
