Welcome to Arthur Creek Farm.

I’ve compiled the videos together again. (Let me know if it’s annoying). Sunday 23rd we were just chilling and checking out what the rain did. Nothing bad, it was interesting finding out the way the rain made its way through the property. Monday was clear too, so we had the chance to continue cleaning and organising the house. Then on Tuesday afternoon, we had a nice storm again. This time it took the power out in the area. Great time to test out the generator. It wasn’t the easiest to start but Jason’s determination got it going.
On the 25th we managed a lovely little drive to check out the small town next to us in the Gladstone region. Rosedale. We stopped for a drink at the Rosedale pub and met the new owners, Mick and Dee who moved up from Victoria. We played a fun game of darts and took in the ambiance of the quaint old pub, making a mental note to go back for breakfast one day. Unfortunately, this day we were even too late for lunch! As we were leaving town, I wanted to stop at a little shop that took my eye, Clenwood Farmhouse https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100085818264768 check out their Facebook page as they post new produce and specials, and visit for a yummy coffee to go.

When we arrived home, Jason did his usual check of the veggie patch and gave me a nice big dish of freshly picked salad greens. I washed them up and made a dressing, cooked some Tasmanian salmon and we enjoyed dinner at the fire pit. So nice to have a delicious dinner outdoors.
The next morning, Jason being the early riser he is, recorded some nice tranquil moments just watching the kangaroos. Jason tried to stop talking so you can see our early morning vista. It was hard for him to shut up, but he did manage to give you quite a while to listen to the birds and I did catch the row of ducklings following their mum. Later in the morning, we had a visit from a praying mantis, then a surprise guest python! Luckily, he was too small to eat our cats for lunch. He simply observed us and coiled himself around the verandah rafters and we haven’t seen him since. Then we finish with a photo of our resident arachnid artist, with his impressive web and our gorgeous Watson. Enjoy.
