The black sheep of the family.

IMG_2022This sheep is owned by the local school teacher, she has a huge black dog and the sheep, she brings them to school in a trailer, both tied up together…. they obviously escaped to get a bit of the nice green grass since the rain, I go around the back and here is the big black dog and the sheep, the husband of the teacher came to pick them up the dog jumped in the back of the ute and the sheep followed along behind.they are great friends go everywhere together. The teacher has 4 students at the school all different ages all in primary school, once they hit high school they go to boarding school. The local copper is going to do some sport with them so that will be great for the kids. Its amazing in small communities how they miss out on so much but everyone helps out to give them the best they can have in their remote and unique way of life.

This is where I go after work to relax and mingle with the locals. This quaint pub has a lot of history and many stories to tell.

Look we have puddles.

We had 38mm of rain over 3 days great news for everyone and the wildlife and stock, some areas had 200mm, the droughts not broken but it sure brings relief.
