THIS AND THAT.....AND HAPPY NEW YEAR

GREETINGS FROM CULVERDEN - THE PLACE WITH THE BIG SKY AND
HIGH TEMPERATURES!

It seems along time since Christmas.

We have had lots of guests staying from all over the world but
this year we seem to have a lot more New Zealanders.Perhaps it's a sign of the times?





Murray opening his Christmas presents.





Katie


We had a strange Christmas Day with the fact that we had about
three present openings!
Max had to work so the first lot of presents were opened about
5.30.Craig and Katie arrived at 10.30 - more presents.
Then Max arrived home from work and the last of the presents were opened.



Gum tree outside the club house at the Hawarden Golf Club.
Look at those dry hills.

One of the main things about these holidays has been the heat.
We have had days of high temperatures - well into the 30's.
Five times these holidays we have recorded the highest temp. in New Zealand.
On Sat.24th we recorded 37deg.
Today Tues 27th it is raining and the temp is 10 deg.
The rain is very welcome and has certainly cooled down the air.I never thought that I would be so pleased to see rain.

Don't think it's enough to keep the farmers happy though!

Till next time


Deirdre
