We have an electrical storm moving across Adelaide now. The server is up and down all the time. Posting is difficult--it's very hit and miss at the moment. This snap was taken on the backroads in the EdenValley heading to the Marne River, which is a tributory of the River Murray.

This image is from a time when I was travelling around looking at how vineyards (mis) used water. The Marne River had dried up as a result of too much run off in the hills being trapped by the vineyards. Consequently, the river had liitle runoff flowing into it.
Therein lies the problem with the rivers in Australia. Too much is taken out of them.
