We got cut off by the floods for awhile but our house stayed dry. The ground outside is still saturated but that is minor compared to all the people who got water through their house or just had their house washed away. There have been King Tides on the Gold Coast and a lot of beach erosion. We're a long way from that though. Colin had to help send all the kids home from school early one day - they liked that. There were concerns they would be cut off from being able to get home on flooded roads. This is one flat country and it doesn't take much to flood it....on the other hand the dams are filling up beautifully and the 10 year drought has been declared officially over.

Most pro photographers figure that after 10 AM and before 4 PM, there’s no use to waste film or electrons or digits. Today’s (May 25) picture was taken when the sun first peeked over the mountain.<br />For people who like to sleep late and still take good pictures, live to the west of a high mountain. By the time the sun comes up, you’ve had a good sleep and still have good light for photos.Tom Hurleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02406594538384486447noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3563375693893858995.post-73733868784312776962009-05-25T19:14:47.556-07:002009-05-25T19:14:47.556-07:00How did you take that great picture?
