Some neighbours get all the rain!

Seems like everyone is getting rain bar us! Falls of 4-8 inches recorded in less than a 30km radius of us and all we had was 10mL. But it's 10mL that we will take!


We journeyed last week to Marlborough to help our mate shift some steers to a feedlot. They had, had approx. 200mL (you stop measuring apparently, after a while lol).

Chief enjoying the puddles


 The Stanage Bay road is currently living up to its name! Got to love how the council can spend millions on a bridge/ road out of Rocky, for a flood that happens once every 20 years, but they can't improve this road which gets flooded like this, up to 3 times a year! Grrr (sorry little rant).



 Finally our beautiful girl, gave birth to 6 cute-as-a-button little puppies! The are all gorgeous and very cuddly. There were 2 boys and 4 girls. The only two with any colour were the boys, all the rest were black and white. Waiting patiently for them to open their eyes.

Want a really cool name for this dog, but all we can come up with so far is Smokey lol. 


Palm sized pup. 


 

Helping our neighbour across the way, with some mustering and branding. There was 100mL here while we only had 10!! Only 15km away.

Beautiful day for it though.

Decided to teach this little one to lead lol. 

Strange place to find a crab claw in the middle of a swamp. 

Bit of air fried chicken! Yummo! 

I finally had a night to myself where I thought I would sit down and watch my new series. The first DVD I bought, I hadn't realised was actually Part 2! After I told my darling husband what had happened, the next time he was in town, also bought me part 2 (thinking I had bought season 2). So I finally got back to town and got the guy to search and find me part 1. Yay I thought! So sitting down with hot cuppa and settled in for an evening for TV, I opened Season 1 Part 1, only to find that the guy had put part 2 in the box!!!! So now I have 3 copies of the same bloody thing! Oh well. I have been told it's worth the wait!
