Summer Days

Boy it's been a hot day, 35deg C at least.
Nothing seems to wilted out in the garden though, will get out and water when it's dark in a few hours.
Summer used to be my fave season, not so much now, but it still has the strongest memories for me. I grew up in a very small town, in a very warm part of Victoria, Australia. Summers seems to last for most of the year!
We were always at the local pool, no sunscreen or hats. I wonder if I'll start looking like a raisan in my 40's :) Hanging out for the hour to pass by after lunch, so our food had "gone down" and we wouldn't drown.
Nowdays I still like summer, but it now means spending time in the sewing room, listening to the cricket on ABC radio, gardening and having a break from work.
I'm off soon to walk with a friend, need to try and do this more often, we yak all the way, and it's great for letting off steam, as we have a rule:
What is spoken on the walk, stays on the walk!!!!!
