Plans to go away for the Australia Day weekend started off well... until ex-Tropical Cyclone Oswald came down the coast!
Plantation Homes notified us that there were some trees on the block where the house is going and asked if we could remove them before they start, so we hoped to head to the Coast for the long weekend to remove the trees and have a little holiday at the same time. We also needed to visit our new neighbours to have consent forms signed by both of them for the relaxation on the side boundary setback adjacent to the footpath (elevation D). BUT after the arrival of Oswald, camping was definitely off the charts so we spent the day removing the trees and meeting our new neighbours instead.
Alex and I are going to get along juuuust fine with the neighbours behind us ha! When we visited them to introduce ourselves they kindly offered us to come inside and sit down and before we knew it we were drinking wine and having beers with them and didn't leave until hours later! Great afternoon to top off a days (ok maybe an hours) work in the rain and mud removing trees.
We are now looking to move into the final stage before construction starts (1-2 weeks) as soon as we receive Covenant Approval.
Trees and shrubs
Gettin' wet & dirty
Ta da! No more shrubs
