Good morning dearest Bloggers. I cannot imagine that people in Europe or North America are excited by snow. But we here in sunny South Africa and after a HORRIFICALLY hot and rainy summer, are thrilled to see white capped mountains earlier this week.
Recently we have had heavy rains here in the mountains. These eased up by Monday this week. However, huge weather arrived on the Eastern Seaboard of South Africa, Kwa-Zulu Natal's North and South Coast and Durban in between.
There have been devastating floods, large losses of life and peoples' homes and possessions swept away in the torrents.
Here in the Central Drakensberg, at last the farm roads have hardened and Skabby and I were able to go out for a walk. The first in almost four weeks.

HAPPY SATURDAY TO YOU ALL!
LOVE those cows and you already know I love our Skabinga.. we saw the horror at Durban. I looked on the map to see how close it was to you. sorry you had all that rain, we are in need of rain and can't get it.. the cows make me happy
ReplyDeleteThe snow capped mountains looks pretty. Love the dairy herd walking on the road and Skabby thinking "I'm free again". :)
