Chill out

Tomorrow the temperature here in Adelaide, South Australia, is expected to reach around 37 degrees C, so I thought this image of friends' pool and surroundings might help this lover of cooler climates to "chill out" ! (Hope you find it a relaxing scene too).
(It's now Tuesday and several regions of our State have been graded with "catastrophic potential" for bushfires due to the high, dry, northerly winds. Praying for all the residents in those areas as well as our brave Country Fire Servicemen & women and the Emergency Services teams and volunteers - may they all be spared facing any catastrophy.)

    Quite an envious scene really as our temperatures have now plunged to single figures.

    Lovely pool -- we'll be heading soon to Florida where our RV Park has a pool (not this lovely though) but I'm looking forward to it. Too cold here in Oregon to even think of swimming outside.

    Hi Valerie, those temperatures are pretty much the year-round norm for us. That's a very cooling and refreshing picture!

    Fun60: Hope you manage to keep warm - after your recent travels abroad, perhaps the cold is even more noticeable?
    Sallie: Enjoy your break way from the cold.
    Chris: Many thanks for your kind words. I sure will hope on over to your blog.
    Duncan: Wow - how DO you survive??!

    That's a lovely scene - but I do hope you get rain to put out those fires.
