A week of storms and rain

It's been a very wet week here in the mountains. After the great weather we had while we were on holidays we've come back to more rain and mist.

Last weekend B thought it would be a good idea to chop down a tree in our backyard which had been hit by lightning about 6 months ago. It was well and truely dead so I kindly held the ladder as B made his way up all the way to the top of the tree. As it was too dangerous for me to help out I took some happy snaps instead.

Here is the dead tree.

Here is Bryan chopping it down

There was a storm that day and D made sure that B wasn't up the tree during it. Thank dogness he listened to her. Some pinkies can be a little stubborn!!! He said don't worry lightning never strikes in the same place twice...............sigh.

We've had a series of storms nearly every day this week. Then on Wednesday night we had a doozy and at about 7pm that night we had a blackout. Lucky for us it only lasted about 45 mins so D took some photos of us sitting around in the dark.

We sure hope this rain goes where it's needed.
