It almost looked like we may have had an early season break which would have been lovely as it has been so dry, hot and dusty. Even Trinity would like a break from the heat! Jackson, Wilson and Tessa are in the house paddock at the moment to take some …
Impressive cloud structure today with the late winter storm we had. Definitely appreciate every drop of rain that is going into our water tanks and watering our paddocks. Today’s was one of those eerie storms where it got incredibly dark and we had some weird Mammatus cloud formations all around …

A bit of a storm and some summer rain came through today, settling the dusty paddocks and a nice break from the heat. The ponies certainly appreciated the cool change 🙂
