We were there mid March and the water level was starting to look pretty low. There were a herd of steers in prime condition and still plenty of feed at that time. Breaks your heart to see it like this. Poor buggers trying to make a living out there.
We notice the landscape getting drier and drier as we are head to Rubyvale to spend a few days with friends on our way to Darwin and they have said they are extremely low on water so we will fill up everything that will hold water and take there. Whatever is left in the auxiliary containers we will drop into their water tanks. As much as I don't like the idea of driving in the rain I certainly hope they get some soon

Its bloody dry here,and I would hate to go out west. We had the hottest and driest summer on record in Townsville region.We had 12 inches , last wet season when we usually get 45 inches. It looks green here, but the creeks haven,t run. I am glad I make my living on the sea. Bill
The strange thing is the water in Theresa Creek at the Bridge, has risen. Not sure where it comes from but a few weeks ago I could walk on dry sand on the river side of logs, a good couple of metres. This time the logs were in the water.
Great to catch up with you Michael and Barb, hope you found the big one.
