6.30am
24 degrees, clear sky.
Steve
had dug a hole where another fruit tree had died so Joy and I could plant a
lemon tree. Collected some horse manure – plenty around – to use as fertiliser.
Helped
Kayla with her school work again and played lots of games. The room is
air-conditioned so we were comfortable in there.
Steve
helped Lance fix one of the pumps as Joy had noticed it wasn’t working when she
took Carol and Doug for a drive yesterday.
38
degrees at lunchtime. Clouding over, might get a storm tonight.
Worked
on my blog while Kayla had a rest. Quite hot so I had a nice quiet dip in the
spa with a cuppa while the boys were working on the 4wheeler. Steve got a
lesson in using the Bobcat too.
Finished
off my book then joined Kayla for another dip in the spa.
The
generator was on so I took my washing up to put a load on. Hung up a line under
the verandah of the guest house – won’t take long to dry.
Joined
the others for drinks on the west side as dark clouds were blocking the sun and
it was very pleasant with the big gum trees shading us.
As
the temperature had dropped I decided to clean out the chook pen – trying to
find jobs I can relieve Joy off so she can get on with more important things.
Spread the hay and chook poo around some of the plants to make a barrier to
help with the watering.
Put
the shade cloth along the awning and sprayed it with water to keep us cool.
Warm
evening – no need for hot shower tonight.
Spotted
some lightning flashes to the north while we were watching TV and just after we
got into bed a few drops of rain hit the roof – probably 30 drops!! Didn’t cool
anything off.
