Paradise.....

There are no words for today...........
There is a line of black cows out in the middle the neighbours had just fed..........
see the circle clouds in the middle of the pic........interesting............
these clouds came and went with no rain........just wind.......
driving home..........dust picking up in front of me.........
We were moving 50tonne field bins............
I opened about 20 sets of double gates..........shitty non swinging gates...........
we couldn't go over these ramps.........

this is the dam we got dug out a few years ago............well worth the money as this would be empty by now............
dust everywhere............
this dam is buggered now......thats the ground you can see in the centre.........

the sun is down low and the wind has picked up even more and I can look directly at the sun and see it's orange glow the dust is so thick..........
I stuck another video up on youtube.......actually two........the one below and another one of the dust picking up down low...........
Another day in paradise!
Catch you later......

We had similar cloud formation here in Melbourne yesterday - hubby was an airtraffic controller and had studied cloud formations - I think they were mermatis(?) anyway - you don't get them often. We thought there may be a deluge also but there wasn't. Such a shame. Loving the pics and videos

I always enjoy seeing your pictures. We don't have dust making the sun orange here, but there are a number of forest fires quite a ways away that are leaving a fine layer of smoke and haze that makes the sun and moon appear interesting colors. Have a great week! Andrea

We were thinking if you yesterday, as there was even lots of dust around here too. We only got a couple of spots of rain, not even enough to get the washing wet. Those hay bales will Ve very welcome.

Goodness, listen to that wind! I am praying for rain to come to your area. Hopefully it will soon rain for you guys.

The contrast between your world and mine is truly something!!

It is getting so dry isn't it? Howling winds here too which are just adding to the dryness.

Such amazing skies and clouds your way. Sad to see so much dust blowing around. Good to seeon dam still ok. Not a big fan of howling winds, last time we had them here a neighbiurs big old gum tree went over with a whump in the middle of the night.

Thanks for showing the videos of your farm...I always enjoy finding out what it looks like in other countries. Not much to block those sandy winds.

Your paradise is looking very dry. The wind has been really bad here too. Not a good thing.
