Bushfires may have blackened hills, but survivors are turning to whatever silver linings they can
ABCKey points: Yorke Peninsula and the Adelaide Hills are rebuilding following devastating fires Farmers have borne the brunt of the destruction, but are staying upbeat Despite the overwhelming losses, many say fires have brought a few unexpected gains According to an old adage attributed to US President Abraham Lincoln: "I laugh because I mustn't cry, that is all". "But it's not a loss — I mean it's still here, the ground's still here, the dirt's still here, it'll still grow and it'll grow better," he said. "It's not only the work we've done it's also the camaraderie with the farmers," Ms Rowe said. "It's a bit of pride really when you look at what we've done together — and that's probably the reason I'm still here really," he said.
