THROUGH MY LENS

More photographs from “Over the Hill”.   I can upon Bob who was doing some planting, Marie also working hard and Jenny, who oversees all the work.  This is a small shed donated my one of the residents and Jenny asked Bob and I to go and get her more cement to finish off making the floor slab.  There will be shelves build in the shed and pots etc will be housed there.  The final shot is of Trevor the tractor.

THROUGH MY LENS

We have access to a rain forest behind some of the houses in our community.  It is called “Over the Hill” and these are some photographs taken as I start my walk up there.  It is a great work in progress of planting trees  and shrubs.  It is also were we keep the  3 Bee hives
