g'day mate - fkn dry argument eh?

hot and dry, white and bright...
still, i'd rather be doing drought than floods....who would want to be a Queenslander?

it has been the usual hell for the last 6 months - and we emerge older and ready for the 6 months of paradise that is ours until about October.
Climate change keeps upping the ante, and we keep fiddling with the design to stay strong amid it.

i wish you and yours all the best -
i leave my place only under duress - and at such times, don't have the happiness for visiting.

i leave to get a tooth out - pretty well all contact with the outside real is delegated to family - that is the only 2 of my family that do what i say.
the other 4 are running with the Herd and lost in the stampede.

i have a job - driving a tractor, towing a scarifier for a traditional farmer who doesn't use chemicals.

ofcourse i must leave my place for this - but i can do it on back roads and not see another car - i don't have to adapt socially too much - once i'm in the tractor i am safe from social interactions -

i learn from this farmers situation - i can see what happens when family combine and focus for a couple of generations - i can see the vision realised and how it too must submit to climate....this farmers place is fkn fantastic - all that i could have wanted for myself.....

but it is shat on - shat on by a climatic trend that will have its way.....their place is still beautiful,,,but only with eyes that can see the depth.....of a vision realised, yet consigned to history and lost to the present.
it helps me to see my place and reconnect with the beauty....

so i meet these people right on cue - March comes - and i find inspiration instantly recognisable as the bastard that had been absent for 6 months.
what happens next, if its the same as previous years - is i'll start wanting poultry, lots of flash new chooks. The Narrogin Poultry Club has an auction on April 14th....

only a few months ago, i hated poultry....i was shooting chooks because they ventured into my camp....crowing, clucking, shitting and scratching up stuff.....i hated them.

the wheel turns
