... than the smell of dust, and then wet ground, as long awaited rain begins to fall...

Wet, wet, wet :) It's just started raining |
|
The dam level is very low, but not too low for the ducks to have a waddle. They've taken over the dam in the past weeks - which is exactly where they should be :) I have a feeling that this gully is going to be deepened with the gorgeous heavy rain which is falling as I type :) |
With the 30 - 40mm of rain which is predicted over the next day or so, all the plants and trees will get a good soaking, the grass in the paddock will be allowed to sprout and provide feed for the alpaca's, the rain tanks, which are all less than 1/4 full, will be filled, and the air (and solar panels) will be cleaned and refreshed.
Thank God for some rain :)
Dani - 2 naked canadians are rain dancing and sending you as much rain as you need! much love!
ReplyDeleteyour friend,
kymber
kymber - RMan and I had a good laugh - thanks :)
DeleteThe Western part of the U.S. is having a severe drought. We are doing ok here, and I'm glad you are getting some rain there. Sounds like you need it.
ReplyDeleteHarry - We had 50 wonderful mms :)
DeleteDani, as soon as I saw "nothing nicer," I thought, "It must be raining!" Because the weather we are hoping for - whatever that may be - is always such a joyful thing :)
ReplyDeleteQuinn - I know one needs sun for the Vitamin D and for photosynthesis, but if we don't have water, we wouldn't have a need for anything else :) 50mms so far - what a relief :)
DeleteI know how you feel about rain. October is usually a dry month for us, but it's also a fall planting month. I have two pasture areas planted in forage seed plus a patch of winter wheat, so I'm hoping and praying for just the right amount of rain to get it all growing!
ReplyDeleteLeigh - It wouldn't have been so bad if we'd had our normal winter rainfall, but, sadly, that was below average this year.
DeleteI hope you get the rain you need for your forage - RMan's first attempt at sowing oats was not successful.
