Very lucky to have meet Alan and Jan from Brisbane visiting this week. After Alan tried a Grampians wine he said “I must visit that wine region” after contacting us we arranged to take them all around the Grampians on the first day and out to the vineyards on the second day - we covered some ground and made the most of the timeframe. Thanks for visiting the Grampians 💚 it was super lovely to meet you both.

With 13 solar panels on the hangar, batteries and a generator for backup we are self sufficient as we can be. Justin is even growing eatable plants around the garden area - well trying too, thanks to the rabbits this task has been challenging. 😁😂 Visit Melbourne
