We have been using the good weather over the last two days for maintenance and weed spraying outside. I could not initially find our cows. They were hiding in a corner behind the manuka trees.

And the weather is a bit of a roller coaster with ups and downs in temperature, wind and sun, interleaved with rain. One day you burn and roast in the sun, the other days it’s southerly with clouds and 10 deg.

There was nothing extraordinary to write about this winter, really. It’s not been too wet and not too dry, neither too cold or too warm. We had a few frosty nights and a few pretty rainy days but all in all it was reasonably warm…

Feels like summer was just happening. Winter started off beautifully with warm days and sunshine over the long King’s birthday weekend.

The sun has been more prevalent and the odd shower has helped all plants to grow a lot. It’s nice to see so much fresh green in various shades

The days have become short and cold, with some frosty mornings. Luckily, so far winter has not been as wet as last years.

Bring on the challenges, 2024. It won’t always be easy, there may be hard work, there may be tears, but we will grow stronger together.

Spring came and went, Summer took over without much changing. It’s still raining every other day and the sun shines intermittently. But on the bright side that has made all the grass grow.

The weather is getting warmer, the mud on the ground has disappeared, the grass has been growing lots, making animals and people are happy.

September came and marked the beginning of spring. Two days prior however it was the coldest night of the year with frost on the car windscreen.

Shady our little Bush Pegasus has peacefully crossed the rainbow bridge today. We are so glad he was able to go gracefully and peacefully with all of us and his best mate Rusty by his side.

February was thought to finally bring summer. What it brought instead was more rain – and storm.
