After a few days of bright sunshine and daily high temperatures between 70 and 75, the weather has changed to ... bright sunshine and daily highs declining from 65 (today) to the mid-50s later in the week.
Of course, there are some rain forecast around the coming weekend, but we've learnt not to pay too much attention to that; the last storm that came our way (and was supposed to alleviate the looming crushing drought) was diverted north and south of us by a persisten area of high pressure, and so we had - well, more sunshine.

It is strange how quickly we become accustomed to more pleasant temperatures - the short sleeve blouses and shirts came out, the heavy jackets stayed at home, and the heater was not tirned on in the car on the morning drive.
This morning (35 when we left the house) necessitated a hasty grab at a jacket, and a shivering in the car until the engine heated up enough to turn on the blowers.

O stuur ons tog so 'n bietjie reën
My oom het 'n tenk vol dieselien
En seën my Pa en seën my Ma
En my oom op sy plaas in Afrika
