We are enjoying our new life up here in Northland.
On Monday, Nita (She's our boss) and I went to get the groceries for the shop that she opens during December and January. We were in PaknSave for 4 hours! I have never been in a supermarket for that long before. I was really tired when we got home again.
Eddie and another regular camper here, have painted the toilet block this week and it looks really nice now. Nice and fresh for the new season.
We have noticed helicopters a lot lately and we wondered what they were doing. On the radio today we heard the explanation. They are checking the high tension power lines for damage. Who knew they did that.
The weather has been very sunny, but it is raining today, which we can really do with. There are about 14 citrus trees here and they are really struggling with the dry weather and dropping their fruit. I am going to get them some fertilizer this week and get them mulched before the summer really hits. This nice rain is just what we needed.
Nita bought 4 more bags of compost for it last week. It wasn't until I opened the 3rd one that I realized it was potting mix. Too funny. The radishes are starting to pop through the ground. Always exciting when seeds appear.
The drinks arrived today for the shop. Nita wasn't expecting them until 2 30, but they arrived at 12 30. Eddie and I went down and helped them unload. We got back to the caravan just as the heavy rain started.
