Pictures seem so washed out...

Is that your streambed? With the raging torrents not so long ago...

sad but true, M. It's been dried up for the last week...we received rain last night and some today..but the flow is still only a trickle.

Talking about extremes eh..

its amazing how the seasons are so extreme with you Lori...having said that we are experiencing a lovely hot summer here. watering all the plants on my nursery is a full time job with all this sunshine...

Glad to hear that you're having a nice hot summer,Sandra ...like last year? Our summer is a clone of the last one! It's been very cold for July...nite temps over the last two weeks have be hovering around 10 degrees C. Days are wet, windy, with sunny breaks but no humidity such as we're used to. Polar Vortex strikes again...the jet stream is also distorted ...strange weather.
