From drought to a bog

A planned day out to finish off a fence way up the back, came to an abrupt halt.










We unhooked the trailer and Chris managed to drive the car out. He moved it to solid ground (or so he thought) in a different position. He wanted to have a go at pulling the trailer out. It didn't go so well...



The chassis was sitting on the ground. So what did we do? We had morning tea of course...



Then we brought out the big guns.


But that didn't work so well either...



We finally succeeded but we did leave a big mess...


And so we spend lots of time in the house waiting for it to dry out...

  3. Plant some corn, kill a cow - and feed it to Christopher.

  4. Well done. An innovative and interesting approach to your blog and very appropriate. Having the camera, the technology and the event at the one conjunction is a feat in itself. Congratulations, Claire
