It looks as though it was well worth the trip. <br /><br />I hope the farm land got some beneficial rain. We were thankful for a week of no rain last week. We have the possibility of some on Wednesday, but I hope it will pass us by.

Our neighbour at Lawson has one it usually waits until Christmas to come out so we are a long way behind you. Perhaps the wildflowers will come out now there has been rain. I checked our bush block for flowers yesterday and none of the usual display (for the 2nd year in a row).
