Subject: RE: BS: Winter in the Garden (keeping busy)
On the southern side of the globe it's nearly Summer and although it's getting warm, it rains every day, so the grass never gets dry enough to mow. It's about a foot high now, so high that the dog has started defecating on the path.

Apart from that, it has been such a relief, since we live in a bushfire area (The Blue Mountains), and the rain we have had so far has virtually nullified the bushfire season. Everything is green, lush and full of new growth. All the mountain dams are full too, so the drought has been at least partially broken as well.
