What a crappy long weekend. I thought that God had broken his promise and that a flood such as Noah's was upon us! We have been down looking after the Shepherds menagere at Papakura for the weekend. Kim is carrying down the line to Te Puke for the week with some of the kids and I am back at home looking at the lake called my lawn. We have heard reports of three family members and friends who are heading towards the line between life and death possibly in the next week or so, so we are just getting organised to get back on the road again.
