Looks very cold out there. It was 98 here today.

You must be more than half baked in 98 degrees Celsius, Ces!!!

Farenheit, not Celsius, or I'd be low heat barbecue! Your pictures make me shiver....BRRRRR!

It's 13 degrees now, climbing to double this morning's temperature but that's why your shivering Ces! BRRRR....

Brrr how cold! How long do you still have to suffer from winter?
And it looks so wet, that makes it still worse...
I dare not say that I go swimming now after work :)

BRRRRR only suffering until the first of September which marks the first day of spring Maria ;) My orchids have begun to flower! HAHA thankyou!

A fog without a bog Gledwood :) You only get to see Australia's summer season in travel brouchures ;)

Thanks Mary Stebbins Taitt :) I liked the fungus growing on a lot of trunks and branches. They added more colour!

I went to the Japanese tea gardens in San Francisco. Oooh they have such an eye for balance and color. Your Pictures reminded me of it, sooo very beautiful.

You're right about Japanese design Indigo-daisy! I once studied Ikebana and it's my favourite style of flower arranging for the same reason ;)
