Wet day Gardening

It has been very dry  the last two months and I have been putting off doing any planting on the block.  Finally today we had some decent rain.  It pretty much rained all day,  varying between heavy drizzle to heavy rain.  This morning we went to a nursery in Cradoc.  By the time we got there it was raining pretty heavily.   Corinna and the kids stayed in the car  whilst I traipsed around in the rain.   I wanted to get some big trees  for the boundary's of the block.    I ended up with a total of 42 tubes.   I managed to get some Spotted Gum,  Blue Gum,  Dwarf Blue gum and Silver Gum.   I wanted to get some Swamp Gums for the area near the creek but the Nursery had none.

I had planned to do some planting this afternoon but the rain did not let up.  Instead I lit the Coonara for the first time and spent the afternoon reading on the couch.  Not a bad day really.
