Plant City!


Monday night before Melbourne Cup Day, Rich and I got started on the plant purchasing. We bought 19 that night, as well as some stuff for the new drip system. The next morning we toddled down to Bunnings to begin the day's play and start up the spending campaign! We ended up buying 71 plants from four places, which included 7 for front yard to replace this year's earlier plant stealing fiasco!

We made a great start on the planting early, but had to go off and do a couple of laps of the 1000 steps! Maz, Andrew and I met up with the beautiful, but shingle ridden Shelley to get fit. Shelley copped an eye-full of some desperado in the car park doing something that should not be mentioned. On the way there, we learnt the fate of the Mebourne Cup, where I managed to pick up a first and a third in my work sweep!! Loving that. Got back home, where Rich was still going strong putting in the drip system. I got straight back out and got al but the front plants in. All in all what a busy little public holiday!
