Study in Grey


This morning I took the friend who had been staying with me for a bit of a look around the area, it has been raining and showery all day and this is what it looked like when we went to the look out at Pt Elliott looking back towards Victor Harbor, all greys and damp and misty.
We have had over 2 inches of rain and there are more showers to come, a wonderful start to the season so long as we get follow up rains.
Of course it doesnt mean we are in the clear, John has been doing cash flows and looks gloomier and gloomier, we still need hay until the grass grows and then some good prices would be lovely. We are still here tho' and that at the moment is the main thing.

Oh, Penny, this is such a lovely scene of the damp and mist. All the lovelier because there are two inches of rain behind it and hope for more.

What a lovely picture - and the story as well.

Instead of cooking tea, I am at the computer catching up while the others buy fish and chips!

Lovely colours - at first I thought they were whales wallowing in the shadows. I would love to live near the sea again.

Penny, I've really enjoyed a couple of days break from blogging, so it was a delight to see this lovely picture. It reminds me a little of the view from the flat my parents had in Hong Kong many years ago.
