AUSTRALIA ~ The Antipodes

AUSTRALIA ~ The Antipodes
I love a sunburnt country / A land of sweeping plains / Of ragged mountain ranges / Of droughts and flooding rains / I love her far horizons / I love her jewel-sea / Her beauty and her terror / The wide brown land for me / ~ Dorothea Mackellar (1885-1968)

The hot weather is still with us here in the U.S.A. but most kids are back to school. Time is short to enjoy "summertime" activities...it may as well be over...unless you are retired like me.

On a hot day like today I could really enjoy an activity like that. Great shot.
