Stump Grinding

Today Paul and I had a day off work as it's a public holiday in Queensland - for the Ekka (like the A&P show in NZ).

But instead of going and wasting money in big crowds at the Ekka, we took the opportunity to do some stuff around the house.

We had this big old tree stump right by the rear stump of the house - not good considering our neighbour has termites!!! So we had a guy come around today with his big stump grinder and he ground the hell out of the stump. So now it's just a big pile of wood chips. However we will need to get rid of those as well as even wood chips are termite heaven.

So now that that the stump has gone, we can really get going on our vege garden. We couldn't move any further on it as we knew the stump grinding machine would have to use that area to really get stuck into the tree stump :-)
