Bracing for the worst...

We're having some pretty bad floods in Queensland.   What happened in Toowoomba yesterday was shockingly amazing, and that surge is slowly making its way closer to us in Brisbane.

My parents, brother and sister have been cut off in Ipswich - all three of their houses are fine (on high ground) but there's not getting out there to visit them.

We're doing alright in Zillmere.  We have problems with running water when it rains heavy, but I think we will be spared any damage from rising water.   We're preparing for a few days inside though, and seeing if we can help any people from out churches by providing a dry space to sleep.

Here's a photo from our backyard a few days ago in the worst of what we've seen running through our place.
