Hope the sale and move goes well for you Robert. Looks like things are really going to happen for you and your family in 2018.

I went exploring on the new block, managed to get bogged on the creek flat at the far end, unlike here I had mobile reception so no walking necessary. Here are a few pictures from the top, they certainly used poetic licence when they listed cattle yards in the list of improvements.
For some reason pictures won't load, will try to edit them into post tomorrow.
Have to try at the library, my computer will not upload photos.
Finally can post pictures again, kept getting a message that I could not post pictures on another persons post.

I picked up the revised house plan today and will receive a price estimate soon.
We have cleared the house site and started the levelling.

The plan is slowly coming together.
A site has been levelled for a new shed making three sheds before the house is built.
I was lucky enough to be loaned a dozer making the earth work easier, the house sight is nearly finished. I get the excavator back this week to do the final trim. Playing with new toys has been great fun.
