Caught up on my washing, 4 loads costing just $12.00, could have done it in my own washing machine but it would have taken too long as my machine is very small and great when you wash everyday or second day.
I found the lake at the caravan park to be rather low, much lower than it was in previous years when we stayed. The grass around the caravan site was not that green, there also were not many people in the caravan park either. A glimpse of Millmerran in 2017 here. This link will show better the water level in the lake.
There is a bushfire near Millmerran, the evacuation centre being the Showground..
The photos are from the internet supplied by the Fire Brigade of the fire near Millmerran, Queensland. It appears some houses are lost.
The fires throughout your country have been terrifying to say the least.
ReplyDeleteIndeed and still going, 3 fires have joined into one front - not good.
DeleteHello Margaret,
ReplyDeleteWonderful pictures around the water. So nice with the clouds in the sky on shot 3 and 5.
Bad to see that bush fire, but sometimes it is good for new nature life.
Greetings, Marco
It's true about new nature and fire.
DeleteThanks regarding the clouds :)
That is alarming to see low water levels in the lake, and to see the fire photos. I am praying for rain for your country to put out the fires.
ReplyDeleteThanks Terra.
DeleteThe bush fire looks devastating, hopefully the firefighters can keep it under control and exstinguish it.
ReplyDeleteLet's hope they can..3 fires have joined forces today and it's a big fire front.
DeleteHeartbreaking.
ReplyDeleteSo many fires are raging at the moment, and so many remain out of control.
You are dead right EC, it seems it's all we talk about if fire and drought these days.
DeleteSon tremendos , los daños que provocan un incendio en los árboles. las precauciones son pocas, para conseguir evitarlos.
ReplyDeleteBesos
Not a great deal one can do if the fire is coming.
DeleteSad but at least you saw it in better times in the past.
ReplyDeleteOh yes Andrew that's true and nice to see it in reasonable good condition.
DeleteFire is never good.
ReplyDeleteTrue Adam.
DeleteIt been ages since I use a paid washing machine.
ReplyDeleteCoffee is on
That was the first time for me too for a long time Dora.
DeleteNo it's not pleasant and it just takes a spark to commence in another area.
ReplyDeleteQue miedo me dan los incendios. Besitos.
ReplyDeleteI really thing most people are, you just don't know what's going to happen.
DeleteThe fires are just so sickening - nothing but fires on the TV news.
ReplyDeleteControlled fires bring new vegetation - uncontrolled fires bring devastation - homes, farm machinery, animals and human life etc etc.
Some commentators obviously have had no fire experience and the impact on rural and now even outer suburban places.

It's not good Colin, not good at all.
DeleteUna pena las dos primeras imagenes. Son la imagen de cada verano. Buen reportaje, Margaret, como siempre.

DeleteSo sad for the destruction of homes and nature by the bush fire. Hope for more rain and the level of the lake rise.
