Protection from Wellington winds

Tree planting has included special bracing to protect our trees from the Wellington winds. Although technically we don't get the Wellington winds when they do come it can be very gusty and unforgiving. I had to tie up the trees to the fence when they were delivered to make sure that they didn't get blown over.

Anyway I thought I do some photoblogging to show the new arrivals settling into their new spots. It's fair to say that this blog entry will mean more to those people who have actually visited our place but I do hope all my blog readers will enjoy the views though!



Note basset boys on the sniff!




Opphs, need to take the instruction labels off these!



If you're wondering what the snake thing is across the picture it's our new drainage pipe.
George and the girls are enjoying their new tree view!

Oh I think a doggie party might be in order when Denver is able to mingle with the bassets. They'd have a ball and you'd get to see the other side of the hill.

Keep me posted when the time comes so we can organise a visit to DE HQ!
