around our hood 'yo

In the not too distant future we will have to get off our butts and finish the renovations to our current house. But it is just so hard when our land is whispering our name on a cool winters day. Begging us to come for another visit. So without disappointing Landy (his new name) we went back for another look. It is also a great indicator on what the area will be like at different times. Once again, it was lovely and quiet. We passed a family going for a stroll, a man heading to his car, a family moving in  and the bird in the below picture. Other than that, there was silence. I decided to take the opportunity and take some pictures of our soon to be new neighbourhood for you all.




The front view of Landy.
The poop throwers. More on that here. This is also a great view of the nature strip.
It is all native grass with the water pipe in the centre, which allows for no guttering and a flat level from road to house.
It looks great in person.



The view we will have once we are in our house. See the moving truck on the right?
Our wetlands, with friendly wildlife.


the new park being built. Children are going to lurve it.

So that was our day.
What did everyone else get up to? Has anyone else stalked out their soon to be new neighbourhood?
Please tell me we aren't alone.
