Winter views


Zoomed in view of the mountains from the land

View from my vege garden- final rays of sunlight bathing the mountains

Backyard trees

View into the vege garden through the back fence. We're finally finished fencing in a bit of our yard for the dogs. The back fence you see here is only half the height of the other sides so we can see through the backyard into the garden. I quite like it! Not much green in the garden this time o' year.

Morning walk


There's a super steep hill near where I work that I try and walk up most days before I head to the office. It's only a 2o minute walk round trip so perfect for a quick jump start to my day! That's the town of Greymouth you can see and the "barber" is the fog that rolls down through the river valley toward the sea most mornings. It's called the "barber" because it's so cold it cuts ya- just like the barber! It's actually quite unique and the only other place in the world where it happens is somewhere in Africa. There's a scientific reason for why it happens- I can never remember.

Another view of the "barber"

I work in the yellow building in the bottom right corner- can you see it? This is the view from the top of the hill.

and another
