The washup...

So we got lucky... it didn't peak as high as first expected and the Brown household was spared. Thousands of others were not so lucky, and I'm sure by now you've all seen enough footage and pictures.

However, if you want to see what happened around our place check out the presentation below.

Our place is the one with the pool in back and lots of solar panels on the roof. (should be in the centre for most pics)

This is the low quality version in PDF format, approximately 2.5mb

and this is the high quality version with transitions (looks better) at 20mb.

You will be downloading this from Adrive an external site, so it will probably cause your browser to ask you are you sure you wish to leave and then you will likely need to select the yellow bar at the top of the browser and select download file. The download will start and then as long as you have Adobe PDF reader for the small one or Powerpoint for the second one, you can save it and run it once the download is complete.

We are all safe, and have cleaned up and helped others clean up. The task will take months however to return any form of normality to Brisbane and South east Queensland as a whole. Feel free to share these files or this link. Thanks to http://nearmap.com/ who took the photo's and put them up.
