Full Morning Sun

Wow, this is the moment when our little valley comes alive!

The song birds descend when Venus rises and then run from the sun to the deeper valleys.

We get direct sun from 7:30 until early evening, and every gardener knows that morning sun is the best!

Here is the view from our front door. I give credit to the unknown early builders of our little cottage, they went to considerable effort to build a huge stone retaining wall in the middle of the forest and off the road system.

I always figured there must have been a good reason for all the trouble, and now that we have cleared the jungle we are being allowed to see first hand why this awesome location was chosen.
