The weather has been quite pleasant for the last few days, even though it has been a bit warm during the day.

At least the dry days have given the ground a chance to dry out and we were able to get our lawn mowed before Christmas. A few days ago the yard was still so soggy that my husband told me the only way he could mow the lawn was with a hovercraft mower

Here is the forecast for the Brisbane area for the next few days. Saturday is looking to be a scorcher with a max temperature of 37°C and the chance of a thunderstorm.
