The sun did shine today.......

........but only for a very brief moment! What a shocking day we have had today! It was wet and cold feeding out this morning - the paddocks have lakes in them, and the ones that the cows have been in are turning to mud. A couple of times I just about lost my gumboot, after it got stuck in the mud while winding up the electric fence.

I took this photo this afternoon, on my way to pick up the boys from school. Twenty minutes later, when I returned home, the weather had completely changed, and it was black as up our valley. We've just had a snow shower pass through - the hills are now white, and the temperature (at 4pm) is now 3.9 degrees C - and going down fast.

I know it is winter, however I just wish the weather would settle down a bit!
