Clouds over the farm

I took this photo this afternoon, overlooking the farm, and looking north towards Nelson. I love the different colours included in this photo, especially the clouds, as well as the green and brown paddocks. (The brown paddock has been planted with turnips). The cloud looks very wild - it has been raining off and on this afternoon, and when the sun comes out it is HOT. I've come inside and put the air conditioning on to cool down. We have had 25 mls of rain since last evening - just what we needed to kick start the grass growing again, and to germinate the turnip seed.

It's my birthday today, and I've been totally spoilt. I indulged in an hour long massage this morning (it was pure bliss!) followed by lunch at a local café. I'm very lucky to have wonderful family and friends, who have showered me with gifts, cards and birthday wishes.
