Our only problem is that we both think we're the chief and nobody wants to be the Indian. Oh, well...mission accomplished. I think I'll take a cue from you and agree to be the flunky just so I can spend the down time wandering around.

It's quite something. So my day will entail working to clean up in the sunshine. not a bad thing in my books. But I think you have me convinced on the acacia department. I'm thinking a nice acacia dealbata. PS: thought of another tree for your new area that I'm sure you're aware of ... drimys winteri pewter pillar!
