The clouds were low over the mountain behind out place when I came home this arvo, so I stopped to take a photo.

You can actually see our place from this spot on the road.

    Thanks RH :) You can just see my house through the trees in the centre of the shot.

    Looks like a lovely spot to be in.
  • David de Groot said:
    Yep - we're quite happy with it :) In general it's cooler here than in Brisbane (sometimes by 5 degrees), we get more rainfall, and are at about 220m above sea level (no problems with melting ice-caps here!).

    wonderful, what a great place to call home

    Thanks, I like it :-) The valley is full of a light mist this morning and there's only the meerest hint of the mountain on the other side - I love mornings like these, even better when I can sleep in (not today).

    I'm so glad you stopped to take this, it's lovely....the mist, the way the road leads your eye into the shot...

    Thanks Melissa. As you can see, my little corner of the world is all green :) In winter the grass might brown off a little, but the trees remain green.

    I'm totally jealous! My small apartment is surrounded by a great sea of other apartments. About a square mile of them in fact!

    Thanks Kev - I definitely like living here, always nice to come home to a fairly secluded spot after spending the day in the CBD.

    Thanks Jill ! After seeing your scenery, that's something :)

    Argh! I couldn't stand that Mark, it was bad enough renting in suburbia for 18 months while we got this place built!

    Wonderful - what a great place to live!

    Hi David! It sure is. We have about 6 acres (2.02 Ha) of land in a rough triangle from the road, and behind us is all National Park :)

    Thanks Zélia, it is indeed a beautiful place to live. I can hear the birds chirping as I type this over my morning coffee.
