Maybe we found our new home in Emerald

We may have found our new home! In Emerald, Victoria. Beautiful street, town, nature walks. We had lunch at Sticks & Stones Cafe, parked the Tesla with the backdrop of some giant trees, walked along the path that would lead from caffeine back to our potential home. Then, on to Puffing Billy, through Emerald Lake Park, past the wishing well and Nobelius Heritage Park, back to town to grab the car.
Charging
Eight panels! That’s not much of a solar array! We’ll be filling that north facing roof with solar panels, to power the house, with battery back up, and charge the car. We’ll be pulling out all the gas. We’ve started seeking quotes for the conversions. That’s assuming all goes well with home loan, inspections etc.
Fortunately, it’s only about 50m of dirt between the main road and our (potential) driveway.
I found it much cheaper to get my gas supply locked off than to have the gas service physically removed.
All the best. Hugh
