Your comment is worthy of a post on its own! We've had a little follow up rain, about 23mm, which is now above average for us. It's keeping the paddocks green and the dam levels up. And the livestock seem to be smiling. Our water tanks are definitely full. This time around we only got as low as one tank. The last dry spell the tanks were running on very low. Only one-third of a tank left. We installed a Miele front loading washing machine in March 2009 and it's really true what it says about saving water. It saves me 22,000 litres a year, which is one tank. So bending down to fill the machine is no longer a 'no go' in my life. And it’s a truly lovely, dependable, quality product. Worth every penny of the extra dollars we paid for it. The air conditioner has arrived, waiting for Victor to install it. He has a lot on his plate to do, but I'm sure it will be in before the next heat wave. It's amazing how a green landscape feeds your soul and improves your outlook on life. I've noticed a much cheerier local community since the recent rains. And we all appreciate your best wishes for good follow up, albeit moderate, downfalls. Take care, CAROL BEVERLEY,

I can feel that your implicit wishes for drought relief were absolutely implored from within; and I've been with you all the way. However, frustrated at my own ignorance of river names in any specific location; worried with the news of the Coonamble floods, sickened at the lifestock loss reports, and angry at the mosquito infestation further north, I've been hoping your particular rainfall was sufficient and kind. And more than just wetting to the ground. "Thankyou God for the full dams"... from all the rams and ewes, the cockatoos and the roos !! "and for the replenished bore too?"... from all the herbs, plants and tree roots, and next years blossoms. "Not to mention the water tanks"...for these kings and queens of the land. "And thankyou too that I can see evidence of the most beautiful handiwork of transformation, in Carol's superb "verdant landscapes" in the early morning mists". Oh Yes, sights to admire and to restore one's spirit. Just loved your angle on this story Carol in connection with Penny and your trip to the "junction". I was captured all the way. Hope there are further moderate downfalls from the west, this summer, but just "as and when" you wish for them !! Take Care, BEVERLEY. CAROL,
Hello, and thankyou for posting this much “wished for” weather report…. on my part.
