Summer in a 10-word nutshell! La, but the conclusion reminds me of those welcome rainstorms in July (here). Thanks for a taste of an Australian summer, I never knew. Ugh. Excellent entry with poignant imagery.

It is certainly typical of an Australian Summer Robyn. I love that we share the same country. A great entry for the competition and good luck!
