It Rained!

A lot! 50 points last week and 4 and 1/2 inches this week - over 5 inches in 10 days. This week's rain fell gently over the first two days then quite heavily all day Thursday. We were in Brisbane Thurs; I took my Dad to a medical appointment re his heart. We are now contemplating open heart surgery later in the year. We travelled home in absolutely appalling conditions, rain pouring all the way from Brisbane to Bell.

Friday morning we went for a drive to check whether the dam we had enlarged had much water in it. Here's the answer! It's full to the brim. Fantastic.

Gibbo found two bottle trees for transplanting.

I know he looks like he's hailing a taxi but he's actually practising his bowling action (as he does often). Today, Saturday, is Grand Final day and the mighty Quinalow team is playing. Up until yesterday evening he was sure there'd be no way the game could go ahead; but the decision was made and so it's on.

The second dam in Paddock 8 is full too, the fullest we've seen in the nearly two years we've owned the farm. We were out early; it was very still and quiet and beautiful. Everything was clean and fresh.

The light kept changing; it was quite amazing.

The mountains were shrouded in mist.

EVERYTHING is full and running over!
