...Pink sky at night, shepherd's delight!
While the August winds are a good sign, indicative of good summer rains, and an ideal Highveld weather pattern, the pinkness all around gave a warm, cozy feeling of a hot, wet summer!
Most of the trees are still brown and bare, spring is creeping on us - I'm sure it is - is that the sweet smell of Jasmine - faint, but there?
So it is! Our hedges of full of pale, pink buds and that familiar old smell - it is time for warmer weather. Looking forward to green shoots, and pretty buds! Spring is sending us hints that she is not far away - whoo hoo!

Ohhhhhhhhhh, {{{sigh}}}, Winter and a cold blast of temperatures/wind sounds awfully good about right now.
Love the photos. That wintry sky looks heavenly. The muted colors...well captured.
I am so over winter. Usually I don't really mind the cold but this year we have had so much rain it stopped being funny about a month ago. So far we've had the second wettest winter on record and there are still 3 weeks to go. Eish!
There is a hint of autumn in our air. I hear the crickets chirping all the time now and the days are getting shorter. The seasons are changing! School starts three weeks tomorrow - summer break is just about over.
I also could not believe the jasmine is starting to bloom
I've been really loving all your comments on my blog. Thank you so much. It is so strange to thing of our fall as your spring.
