The long hot summer

 This part of the garden looks good, ah!

Believe me you wouldn't want to see the lawn.
Just about dried out. We were hoping it would survive the summer, but we are about to break a 1976 record for the longest consecutive days over 35...or something like that.
There's Lajla in the Snow in Seattle, U.S.A.
 Gayle is in floods in Canberra ,
 Jeni, Yvonne and I are 'frying" in West. Aust.

 But I'm smiling......most of the time because our
house is fully air-conditioned.
Somehow Bourgonvilla's always look beautiful
in the 'scorching sun'.. This one was almost down the
gurglar when Bob did some pruning . I nearly died when
I saw how savage his saw was. It's a wonder I wasn't heard in the Northern Hemisphere, but just goes to
show you how hardy they are, .
