Tirau is a little town about five miles down the road from Putaruru. When we drove through we were enchanted by dozens of clever corrugated metal business signs and even two buildings. When we mentioned this to our landlady, she said, “Oh, yes, those are done by our friend Jim--he did our mailbox, too.” He has turned Tirau into the "Corrugated Iron Capital of New Zealand" but also supplies customers throughout New Zealand and overseas. Just thought I would share a few.
On April 6, Mark will start work again in Wairoa, a town on the northern end of Hawke Bay on the east coast of the North Island. We will be there for a month. For the next three weeks, we will be traveling to different areas of the North Island--east, north, and central, we hope.

Our mailbox--appropriate for folks emigrated from Zimbabwe, don't you think?
