Watching grebes on the dam
In December 2012, we invited brave members of our families and friends to venture south to the block to walk the boundaries, share ideas and picnic under the trees with mugs of mead. Braving driving southerly winds the group scythed and machete’d through the thicket of thistles on the dam wall and started sorting and disposing of the rubbish under the gums.
