Belgrave Views....

 ...and some terrific bargains at Carlottas.

Peaceful Friday Evening

 

Maggie is happy, as are we all. The rain has arrived.

 

On my walk this morning.

Leaf fall from the linden tree.

 

Dry gardens

Autumn, and the weather is still unrelenting. 35 degrees C today and hoping for some rain along with cooler weather in the coming weeks. Without air conditioning, summer was been a bit of a drain. Everyone is growing tired of the heat - it hinders us from doing the activities we would normally do. 

Thought I might spend some time recording the dryness of the garden. Thankfully, the natives stand up to the lack of rain very well. The local birds visit for a bath and sip of water as do the bees, but I've yet to photograph them.

 

A recent bake - Fruit and Nut Bread.
