Beyond the Drought Report


Well I'm quite happy to report that there are 3000 more trees growing in the world after BTD on the weekend. That's enough O2 for 6000 people - so breathe deep people, breathe deep. The punters came in droves and everyone got into the planting big time. We were gunning along those ripped and ready lines like we were going for gold in the tree planting olympics. And how chilled was it to be in the rolling hills with a great bunch of people making mud soup, getting dirty and getting trees in the ground with a bit of a laugh and a joke and just plain enjoying the fresh air and country vibe? Pumps worked his magic with stage set up, the music rocked and Woody ran a bar that had permanent happy hour (free booze). Does it get any better than that after an honest days planting? Brainsy's rain dance was so successful that it rained before she even started which was great for the trees but a little unexpected for the punters. Bluey and I were stoked with how well it went and how much everyone got into it ... the talk has begun for next year already so make a mental note that you gotta get down for it. Click on title for some more pictures of event.
