The horrible burn we had (two days worth) last spring is starting to heal itself. Green is everywhere, although, lots of the green is invasive weeds. Still it’s green.
Also, a “little” green arrived in the mail…the insurance company covered the cost of the gated pipe on our land and some of the fence posts. The whole west side of the fence is not covered yet…lots of dickering on amount and such is going on with the two other farms who experienced they same horrendous fire.
Then yesterday the Ditch Company came and fixed the fences on the north side and the east side of our place!
The Ditch company said they would even fix the bridge (they burned) this winter with a cement top instead of the burnable wooden top.
We are really feeling blessed. Once the fence on the west side gets fixed we will have everything back to where we started.

Your blog on farming is very interesting and I am in the midst of an irrigation research study for automating gated pipe. Would you have some time to speak about your experience with gated pipe?

Good things all around. However, dealing with insurance adjusters is a challenge that is really frustrating. I’ve just finished insurance woes with my car.

That is good news Linda. Certainly they took their time. I wonder how many meetings?
Anyhow better late than never. They are still here bickering over who pays what for what and
to whom over the horrendeous flooding of 2010/2011.
All looks nice and lush now, so hopefully a bumper crop for better compensation will be an
added bonus.

Weather report: It is August, isn’t it? Seems that after 30 years of living in Brisbane
and the Sunshine Coast, that the 2012 version of August has been missed.
Just unbelievable weather.
