Rain, rain ......


I can't say "go away" because we need it so desperately.
Before this latest round of storms, we were at 19% of normal. Not good at all.
But a little break would be very welcome. I'd like to take the little dog on a walk without having to hose him down afterwards and I'd like to be able to go outside an take pictures of some bags. Indoors just doesn't work as well.
And just to show that it doesn't only rain badly here, the last picture is one DH gave me permission to post - he and a group of colleagues climbed Sydney Harbour Bridge at the end of a set of meetings, sort of as a team building exercise. They were kitted out with raingear, flashlights and tied to a wire so they couldn't fall (or jump) and had their picture taken in the driving rain. Sydney Opera House in the background. I think I'll either pass on that adventure or wait for a sunny, but cool, day.

Beautiful shots Doris, I especially like the one of your DH's group, looks like they are having fun!

Grace, I had nothing to do with DH's group shot - other than resizing it a bit. The photographer took pity on them and gave them an extra photo for free because the photos did not turn out well - driving rain will do that.

We had a bit of snow yesterday, but the rain made it go away. A bit of snow forecast for Saturday night, too.
