Wilf

Also a very bright all yellow tazetta  seedling  — similar to  Winter  Sun  and  Kapiti  Mayflower  but  much  earlier.
 
We  took a minor  road  heading home to avoid  road reconstruction.
Stopped to photo  this  record  of the  big  floods  on the Manawatu  River.
Fortunately it is now  well contained by  very solid  stop banks  –leys to the  Americans.
 
Wilfred  grandparents  lived in this  area and  he has vivid  memories  of visiting  them  soon  after the flood and  being  amazed
at the  flood  tide levels  on the wall paper in the house  —  almost to the ceiling.
Lasting  memories for a young  lad.
 
Cheers  John
