The temperature at Kalgoorlie has been hovering in the high 20s for the past week and there is no sign of a cool change in the forecast.

The weather we’re having would be considered balmy in summer at Mount Gambier.

I’m not enjoying it though. The flies are back and the cool mornings are gone now too. As for rain, what’s that?

There were a few spots while we watched Michael’s soccer on Saturday. Maggie (4) came running over to tell us “something’s dripping”. She sees rain so rarely she had no idea what it was.
