*

Our country is in mourning.

*

Loss of life climbing towards 300 from the fires in Victoria.

Hospitals full of burns victims.

*

Queensland to the north ravaged by massive floods

and South Australia where we are, stricken

by drought.

*

5 empty dams, some bore water left for the minimal core

of our animals and rationed rainwater for our two households.

*

Another heat wave is approaching.

*

Everything is tinder dry, should a repeat performance of

Ash Wednesday 1983 occur when we had our turn, we have

no water reserves to protect ourselves.

*

Our hearts and prayers are with the Bush Fire victims in

Victoria and New South Wales and all those affected by the

loss of life in the Queensland flooods.
