Default Loverly rain

My garden and pastures are slowly drinking in the rain that has been
falling on-and-off for 4 days. So far 60mm and more on the way. The
cracks are closing, the grass is growing and tanks are full. The steady
showers are filling up the subsoil with almost no runoff which is
great. Perhaps in a couple of days if the big sponge is getting full
some runoff to refill the dams and to get the river going would be
nice. The horses have all calmed down and stopped charging about - they
seem to know their life will be better now. Sadly, for the moment, it
looks like the rain in NSW will be mainly east of the ranges down to
about Sydney.

What do you use your horses for, David? Are you a mad Pony Club Dad or
do Adult Riding Club or...?
