only change is constant

the house opposite has sold

bread queues in Tribes

a new bakery van has opened

went for a walk with Barbie Doll

looking over Spring Bay to Tribes

beautiful red gum at Barbie's place

cute doggie cut out at the end of her road

yesterday was a dream, moody and still

some change is reassuring, cyclical,

a sign of good times to come

Happy Birthday to The Beagle

All for one and one for all.  CKB is always with us.

Garden photos have been on hold lately because there is nothing new to photograph.  The dry weather has just turned everything golden or dead.  But not so at the Eiffel Tower.

You may recall back in October (http://tirralirradancebytheriver.blogspot.com/2018/10/) that some trucks pulled up on the corner of Melbourne and Vicary Streets, unloaded, and erected a metal structure.

Well, now the plan is coming together.  The metal boxes were filled with potting mix and plants a month or so ago and, to my amazement, despite being either north or west facing, everything seems to be flourishing

There are predominantly Tassie natives on one side

with a mix of natives and mainstream edibles on the other,

and a few succulents thrown in.  It took me a while to appreciate how clever the design is.  I had wondered why we had to wait for a sculptor to design it.  It's lovely to see people linger as they walk past.  Children sometimes run excitedly from planter to planter.  Some bold ones pick the herbs and strawberries, which is all part of the plan.  The University of Tasmania has funded and driven the project.
