It may be the height of the summer and therefore not expected but...it is Northland after all.
I am thankful for the rain. It fills our tanks, it satiates the garden and the grass, it paints a hundred shades of green across the hills and the paddocks.
However, it doesn't stop two dogs from loitering in the study doorway, with expressions of eager anticipation of the daily walk that just isn't going to happen today.
