In the past couple of days, we have had 85ml (340 pts) of truly soaking beautiful rain - a real blessing. Our crop should respond nicely. So far we have not had any frost, so we have been very fortunate. I guess we will be look for a frost before long to ripen/dry the grain for harvest, but if it can hold off a little , all the better.
Adele and Bernie arrived here last Friday and so we have been very slack work-wise but we have been running around a bit. We went to the Jondaryan Woolshed for Brunch on Sunday morning where we met Marjorie and Jim Carter. Carters live at Highfields and Marj and Adele were in the same class at Clermont. We stayed on until about 2 pm when we decided to go across to Kaimkillenbun where Jim and Marj's son and grandson were competing in crosscountry motocross. Cody Cook had been there also but had tyre trouble so had gone home.
Monday was a quiet day and then on Tuesday Mum had Childrens R.E. then Bible Group before we went into Toowoomba to get a couple of Tyres for Adele and Bernie's car. We shopped, called on Jim and Mel and family before going out to Carters where we ended up staying for tea.
Tuesday Mum and I went into Toowoomba for a retreat day for the people who do R.E. at the schools.
Adele and Bernie are heading for Brisbane today - they will be staying with Aunty Jean and Uncle Bob Bull who live in a retirement village at Sunnybank.
