Recent rains have done wonders for Deniliquin with gardens and lawns starting to brighten with colour.

With water a valuable resource, every drop that nature provides is welcome despite rain usually putting a dampener on activities such as gardening and playing outside.

This recent rain is also good news for those with water tanks as tanks have been getting its share of water which ensures garden and drinking supply for several more days if not weeks.

Further rain is expected during the week but Deniliquin residents will be pleased to know that there will be good days in between the rainy weather.
