Hi Brian,
welcome to the list.
You surely have done a snap.
Coincidentally I am not at home in Doncaster Melbourne but visiting my son in
the hills behind Mullumbimby.
So the same rains you have been experiencing have kept us from going far, and
have denied us electricity for two days.
Power now restored here but not to thousands.
Awesome waterfalls tumbling down the cliffs that circle this valley.
Yesterday I could enjoy the view to Byron Bay and even visit it, but now need to
go through storm towards Coolangatta to be sure of getting my Sunday morning
flight home...
Great region, this, wish I could spent months here, except when it's flooding.
Max
