We're on our way

Gareth & I had always wanted to escape Sydney and a few years ago we were lucky to stumble across this beautiful paradise called Carool. This is our story of building our dream home. We look forward to sharing this with you over the coming year or so and hopefully look forward to welcoming you as our guest when we open our small luxury B&B.

Poor Danny and our Damara Girls

Sad news on the hill today, something (probably wild dogs) got in and killed our flock of Damara Sheep. It is very distressing, as we were expecting to have some baby lambs soon.

Danny, our ram, was particularly special as he had been bottle fed and used to walk around by your side just like a dog and was a good friend with Oscar. We can't find him - we found all the Ewes, but we suspect he suffered the same fate. I guess this is just part of life on a farm, but it is sad none the same.

Here was a photo of Danny on our front lawn (not his best side -  but any side would be better now than none). Shame we won't  have him running up the paddock to meet us any more.

Here's to some happier news next post!
