Very humid with light to really heavy rain all day
We were up bright and early at 6am as we are a bit state-lagged. We were on the road by 7:10am and stopped for fuel and coffee in Kingaroy. It was then a straight forward run home, apart from the torrential rain that came down in places. We noticed a lot of water in the gutters and the closer we got to home, the more water there was. When we checked the rain gauge, we’d received a little over 300mm (not counting evaporation) in the nine weeks we’ve been away. And, it didn’t stop just because we were home; after lunch, and in between downpours, we unloaded the van, put it all away where it should be.
The place looks like a jungle; the kangaroos have simply not been doing their job very well. Thanks to our neighbours, Terry and Leandra, for mowing around the house and keeping a general eye on the place. In keeping with the Thursday night tradition, we went to the Torbanlea pub for dinner with Sue and Mark. Greg had the Barra and Wendy had a huge steak that was cooked to perfection. Nice to be home!
