Birthdays...

On my 50th birthday, we spent the weekend in Raglan... the seaside, the sunshine and excitement. One morning Robin and I went for a walk... and came across the section for sale. Rob loved it right away - what an omen:)


After the weekend, we went back home and life took over. But months later, we drove by and lo and behold - it had been waiting for us!

The idea of building Manuka Bush was born on Annick's birthday which the following video clip captured - not far from Manuka Bush:) Since you have to turn 50 one day - make a lifetime decision on the day:)

This blog...

is a real time project log - to help make decisions about planning and building Manuka Bush home for the family!
