Good morning..it is still wet wet wet down here.
I had a fabulous week away with BlazeAid and we managed to finish all the fences for one farmer. An elderly lady doing it tough on her own, because her husband is not able to help much any more.I loved every minute of the hard work. Well worth it, to see the huge change in Dell and Bruce's emotions from the day we started to day we finished. They looked lost and despaired when we arrived and by the last day , so full of joy and hope. We were extremely lucky that the rain held off for us. The paddocks we had to travel through were already soaked and very boggy, making our drive in "very interesting" even in 4wheel drives. We had to be pulled out by Dell in her tractor, once. On our last day, it started bucketing down on our drive home to our camp and it never stopped. I was thinking about staying on for another week but it really would have been pointless because of all the rain, we couldn't get to the properties anyway to get any work done. It poured rain the whole trip home and just got heavier the closer to home I got. My original plans for a week of travelling around and camping , relaxing, soon looked dismal. But surprise surprise!! Monday late morning the sun actually shone and there was some blue sky, so I quickly jumped in my van and headed off to a lovely little town that has a nice camping area along a creek. Had 3 days there with not much rain. I just enjoyed my own company and view. Everything and everywhere is still so very wet and boggy and the sky is looking very dark and gloomy with more rain the come. I think I am growing web feet LOLKATIE @fyrqueen
