Hopefully it makes a tasty omelette eventually, because at the moment it’s just a big scrambled mess.

On top of all the carnage caused previously by tree removal, and now by heavy equipment reshaping the landscape, it is also late autumn so the trees are bare. It is definitely making it look like I have too far clearing things, even I am starting to worry.

I’m reminding myself that most of what has been removed was pines at the end of their lifespan, diseased trees, and over crowded saplings that were strangling each other. Some trees that I was sad to loose were just too close to the house or powerlines etc. and also a bushfire hazard.

With the new drainage system the driveway into the property should now be usable in all weather, and stop washing away the bases of the trees that remain. There is a lot more landscaping and gardening to come, and I am placing a lot of faith in next spring being a good one.
