The weather is great, but..

The weather here is great, except for the huge thunder storms that keep rolling through.  I saw one of trees outside our house hit by lightening the other night.  It burst into flame which was quickly extinguished by the heavy rain.  Really spectacular.  Yesterday I spent time during the storm with two dogs.  One kept barking at the thunder the other had to be held tight.  There is another cyclone up north, Trevor, and he is expected to cross the coast tonight.

It should be getting cooler and I should be knitting.  If I don't start soon I won't have things finished when the cold weather hits.  So with this in mind I have bought a copy of the 'Carbeth Cardigan' by Kate Davies

Swatching starts tonight.

Goodness, it's a good thing you were having so much rain when the lightning hit that tree!

It is easy to see how bush fires start after witnessing this.
