What a difference 2 months and 391mls of rain for the month of December in northern Australia makes. A Wet Season is an experience! The change is stunning and startling.
This photo was taken in late October 2020. Our garden was showing signs of stress and our bore (our only supply of water for all household and garden use) was beginning to be "tasty".
This is the same spot today, 07 January, 2021. The bush has "greened up". The boab tree is in full leaf. I could wander through the sparse undergrowth two months ago, now I need a machete to hack my way through. The aquifer has been recharged, the lawns need mowing almost daily and our bore water is "sweet".
Our driveway in mid December after a 50ml downfall in 20 minutes. The mud was ankle deep. I got "bogged" walking out to my sewing room that is to the left of the palms and there is now a "Road Closed" sign on our road just before our gate.
Ah, life in the Kimberley in the Wet Season.
