Rain - our lambs have never seen it before

After 65 days without rain, the rain came - in spurts.



When the whole state was expecting good rains, we were hopeful of some. But the first rain band left us with just a few spits. Very disappointing.


And then, as it disappeared over the horizon, it dropped 3 mls - depressing when other districts were recording 30mls.

But the skies finally got serious, putting on a show (it always does that) but delivering on the promise this time.)


It all came in a storm burst... and we gratefully received 14mls. TOTAL: 17mls. (Less than others in the district, but blessed rain none the less.)




This rose had never seen rain before - just like the lambs.
