I can tell ya around heyfield was that dry, that if you cried, as your tears hit the ground trees were shooting up....
We went to Huggetts crossin, there wasnt a sign of Damp under rocks, let alone where it flowed...
I think its gonna take rain like this for 12 mths to get the Thompson back to full...

The rain last night missed us - we have had 5mm in about 6 weeks - tanks are getting low - another 2 weeks and I will have to buy water which I haven't had to do for 5 years !
I '96 I bought to MG cows, joined - the paddocks (on 10 acres) were covered in lush green grass. The next year, '97 it was very dry and I had to sell the 4 animals for less than I paid for one. Since '97 the block has not been green once - thats 7 dry years !!

Half your luck!! We have had only 2mm of rain since early March 2003. Cattle stations around here (
Oodnadatta) are trucking stock out.
