Beulah Stories Behind The Pictures Dee McColl

This is Book 2 of the series Beulah. It tells what lies beyond the images that appear in the series. The story starts with the previous owners of the rural lifestyle block that Stu and Dee McColl purchased just outside Paeroa - world famous in New Zealand for the 'big brown bottle', the town where the cordial "Lemon and Paeroa" or plain L& P had its origin. Black Rock is also a well known mountain feature on the Coromandel Range. Everyone associated with the property have left their mark on this fascinating home and garden. Visitors are invited to tackle a long list of 'projects' and make their contribution which is and will be enjoyed by all and sundry. The 'projects list' has in the main achieved what was originally intended. Some were not quite sustainable and have been abandoned of modified with time. Folks tend to return to take on other chores and only a few who shied away stayed away. However, many keep on coming back probably because Beulah is such an amazing gem in the middle of everywhere in New Zealand.
