You can take the boy out of the garden ...

But you can't take the garden out of the boy!

Peter was looking forward to having an apartment, and no garden (especially no lawn) to look after. We even gave away the lawn mower we had bought in Toowoomba - remarkably it had thoroughly paid for itself the way the grass had been growing in those few months!



So we have this little bit of a "balcony" (well, it's the fire escape really) near our kitchen door, and there is a ledge that runs right around the place under the windows.

Perfect place for the odd pot plant.




And, of course, there are a few plants inside too.
