'When it rains it.......'

Pours.and pours and pours down!

We have been spared the really heavy rain,but not so this morning-it

bucketed down.Caused a few issues on the property,so lots of cleaning up.

Fortunately,the observatory did not get any damage,but some other sheds,

and outer sheds were not so lucky.

I got bored taking photos for the insurance company,and headed to the gully,

which was roaring,lived here for twenty years-never seen anything like it.

The gully usually has no water.See if you can spot the green frog on the tree!

He has had enough of all the water too!

Cheers Chris (images taken with Canon Power shot A550) the ones with frog was in manual mode)

We're certainly living through interesting times....
I see what you mean abou the frog - he won't have to worry about drying out too much for quite a while
