RE: Checking in

Most of the fires were put out by the previous storms, about 3 weeks/a month ago. My part of the world did not have the massive fires that were happening in Victoria and New South Wales, the nearest to me was about 40k away. Our main concern has been drought, and so this rain was very welcome

Re: PESO: First Snowdrop

Very nice close up. I sympathize with your annual habit to get on your knees for this flower. Interesting season difference as where I live many of the flowers of snowdrops have already gone now as they start to flower in January. Henk Op 2020-03-08 om 20:23 schreef Paul Stenquist: As I’ve
