LOOKING UP

I keep looking at those rocks up on Mount Aubrey behind us and hope that Richard's sparrows don't fart too much as to make them fall down.


A I said previously we don't have earthquakes in Northland and volcanic activity is long gone. We do have droughts and, following those, monsoon-type rainfall. This leads to some pretty amazing slips.

Neighbours property two houses down after the February rains.

A house a bit further down our street has an even bigger slip below it and could well fall down if they don't repair it and if we get another big rain.

Second mentioned Tsunamis. We do live close to the water......

The bottom of our driveway
...... and the regional council has just installed tsunami warning sirens around the bays but, you have to go sometime. Maybe I'll get washed up up in the old settlers cemetery on the other side of McLeod Bay with my ancestors.
