Meandering around the country, starting early. Just what we are trying to catch up on now.
What greets us this morning is a much nicer version of the day. The wind and rain have gone for now. The freshness that rain brings to a parched earth is much more evident than simply the dust reducing spray of the water truck.
Next door’s construction site has not been decimated either. What rain there was, pooled like there had been torrents falling in the caravan park, is non evident on the construction site. Work continues as if it was a normal day. Apparently the torrents that appeared to fall were simply a brief shower and now, with the sun out everything returns to normal.
So normal in fact, I pull out the awning and secure it. It is wet and the sun will dry it, with no chance of mould building up while it is in the closed position.
There are places to go and people to see this morning. My wife being a self professed Mango Smoothie Indulger wants to hit Bumbak’s for their attempts at becoming her “most preferred supplier” of the golden libation, presently held by a business in the Paspaley Arcade in Broome.
