Life in Hilton

We are settled in our interim house in Hilton until 'Millwood on Garlingto' is built and I must say it is a very comfortable place to be.   There are lovely trees in the garden and lots and lots of birds.   Our furniture fits in as though it was made for this place and there is a certain sense of peace everywhere.   It is much cooler up the hill but the travelling is taking a bit of getting used to.   We were so spoilt living 2 kms from work.

I love it when the mist swirls in and the drizzle starts.   I come alive and have so much energy.   When the heat and humidity hit well that is another story.   We were told we would not need a pool up here but I have swum twice in one week!!!

The shops in the village are amazing and the restuarants are too.   Had supper at Little Poland last week and it was so different.   We are spoilt for choice here and they are just 2 minutes from our doorstep.   The most wonderful shop is the Rotunda and it is going to be the death of me!!!!    Homemade cakes, breads, pies etc and every spice and garnish you could wish for.   Beautiful fresh vegies and cheeses so different.   I think I may spend quite a bit of time there!!!   I will have to walk the 1 km there to get my waist back again.

The architect said our building will start in the next week and I cannot wait.   This will be the very last house we live in and we will pour our personalities into it.   I took photos on Monday and will go tomorrow to take more.   How blessed we are to have this opportunity.
