2020 - March Madness

COVID19 and not being able to travel or be visited by friends and family is a b...........

March started with us still in Queensland.  Visited the Mangrove Walk at Wynnum and enjoyed it.

Wynnum Mangrove Boardwalk

We travelled home via Warwick, Goondawindi and the Newell Highway.  I finally managed a decent photo of this Warwick display.

Rain transformed Canberra - travelling south, we were amazed at how green everything had become since about 6 weeks previously when it was still dry.  The driest, least green was between Cowra and Canberra around Boorowa.

Dams were overflowing and grass growing.

The rate grass is growing in my backyard requires the lawnmower every 10 days.

We went for a morning's drive that started out to see how Namadgi was recovering from the fires, but the road was blocked off near the Visitors' Centre, so we returned home via Tidbinbilla and the Cotter.  We were surprised to see how close people were in the Cotter Camp-ground, given the health warnings.

 April may be weird if I cannot get photos - there may be a review of some older photos.
