MORE PICTURES

I was too devastated to want to take photos of the water as it was flowing through the property, that and too busy trying to save the house and livestock. We did save the house only just and lose about 8 sheep (that is more than 10% of our small flock) and I think that we will lose one or two more that have not done well from the trauma.

The first photo here is of our fenceline where the water was running through - we managed to clear a small space here and you can see the debris on the side of the channel - the paddock that it was running through to was covered with all the water draining from us.

This is a glamour shot of Michael . Where he is standing has had all the leaf litter etc washed away in the torrent and there are tree roots exposed here. I am hoping that the trees do not get too much of a shock.



Another view of the fenceline wher the water was draining from the property - it's a bit dark but again has debris along the fenceline.


Third view of the fenceline and the now drained neighbours paddock. There are no photos of where the water came onto our property save to say it was the same neighbours property on the other side of us that t came from. There was a lot of water that drained into a ditch that ran along the front of our poperty as well.
