In Lara, it is 40 degrees, or 10 Fahrenheit. That is hot. there is also a gusty dry wind from the dirction of the inland deserts. The small dams and water hioles have all dried up. Farmers have had to reduce the numbers of livestock. The beauty of Australia is a harsh beauty. There are no typhoons in the Southern corner of Australia. But as the Summer heat recedes, there are storms of wind and rain from the frozen South.
In between these extremes, the climate is temperate. Not tropical.
Aileen called to say hello. She is feeling better today. An empty sensation inside, but the first day when she has not been feeling constantly sick. Yesterday she arrived home with the lime green material for the bridesmaids' dresses.
Here is an example of one of her text messages in the last few days :
When I feel so empty within
like how I feel now,
I stare at your pictures
wishing ur here.
Really I miss you so much
my James.
Am feeling so sad now!
Need u!
