Road Closed

 


Massive water main break on Main Street. Corrosion of the 80 year old water mains. No water for any of the businesses. No parking for a whole day. School buses being diverted. I think it's fixed now. But that fix must have cost a lot. There have been plans to reconstruct this portion of Main Street for a number of years, Time to get it done before it costs even more.

Super Bunny

 

This brave bunny was visiting my neighbours little patio, munching on some juicy grass. He was definitely keeping an eye on me, just in case I was an evil bunny predator, but didn't object to having his photo taken.

Nasturtium

 

So bright and jolly, and edible too. I bought a packet of seeds about 6 years ago, and each year I save the seed crop, and plant new ones.

Cabbage number 2.

 

This red cabbage didn't quite make it to supercabbage status, but I love this dusty purple colour.

The first apples from the baby apple tree. This little apple tree has been trying very hard to produce an apple and it's finally successful. Well done, little tree.
