That Was The Week That Was

It's been quite a week in many ways.  I'm not going to go into details but I suppose the weather has been a barometer of the week: rain storms, floods, gale force winds and hot sunny days mirroring days of despair and days of hope in everything from the serious (friends' situations) to the inconsequential (my ability to hit a croquet ball properly!). 

Flooding at Rotowhenua Road - it has been right over the road.

  5. Luckily, that week is not the norm!
    I was reading a short article on New Zealand a few days ago, and it said that NZ is called "the land of the long white cloud." It said you will get wet!

  6. Beautiful shots, GB! Comet could be the twin to my beloved late Catboy. Here's to better days, friend.

  7. There seems to be "weather" everywhere, and I just didn't notice! I've seen signs of rather serious flooding here while I was away.
