What a difference a Rain makes


The grass was non existent on Australia Day. A big storm and another day of steady rain makes all the difference. This area used to be the camping ground and was covered in thick lush grass. After 10 years of drought (7 years of not being able to water grassed areas) it is just a dustbowl from October to April. We have installed a number of large water tanks in the last 18 months and will start putting a bit of water back into this area. It is quite amazing how the grass appears after a shower or two of rain - it really just looks like plain ol' dirt.
