So far, 2008 has been wet.
Really really wet.
Rain nearly every day this month.
Brisbane’s dams are now over 30% of capacity (up from something like 15% this time last year)
There are gullies across my back yard where the water running under the fence from my neighbour has pushed aside the gravel. The whole lower back yard is a damp mess. The vegies, especially the tomatoes have given up the ghost with the swampy ground.
Amazingly there was just a little bit of sun yesterday and this afternoon, so for the first time in 3 weeks I get to mow the lawn, which is inches high. Of course, I run out of petrol half way through.
Bet it rains tomorrow again!
