My Bay.

Description

This is Chain Valley Bay on the south eastern corner of Lake Macquarie, around ten minutes’ walk from my home.
The weather this week has been atrocious, although the farmers inland are celebrating the heavy rains we have been experiencing. While the sun is out today, we have strong cold southerly winds; it is more like winter than summer.

Peaceful scene John, but I do notice a lot of storm clouds moving in. The Northeast United States is buried in snow, and the temperatures, well, I dont even go out unless I have to. Excellent work. #11234510

It doesn't look to bad then but obviously you didn't take this one when we were having that downpour. Should have flushed the gutters out if nothing else. Nice scene=^..^= #11235157
