Well Blue, we had much the same sorta Saturday weather here in the Adelaide Hills that you're expecting - pretty much everything (except snow

) at some stage during the day.... intermittent rain, sunshine, wind, small hail, gales, a bit of sleet, some more rain, a bit more bright sunshine, windy again, rinse, repeat, and so on.... but all of it tinged with smoke from the grass fires, bushfires, & remnants of bushfires in the Hills area & blowing over from Yorke & Eyre Peninsula's off to our North West - some of the fires deliberate Hazard Reduction Burns relying on the weather & rain to keep them under control; some 'naturally' started fires out in the bush slowly burning the abundant ground cover & rubbish bush; some not so 'naturally' started fires all over

mad

; & a few house fires (the weather's getting colder & many haven't checked/cleaned their chimneys properly before lighting their first winter fire to warm the house!

) & a few car accidents/fires on the roads upwind of us (end of school hols so lots of overloaded cars travelling in iffy conditions! :banghead: Luckily, no lives lost, but a really bad way to end a holiday! :sour: ) So despite what little lawn I have left
really needing some attention from the mower and a heap of recently neglected projects waiting for me to get back to them, I sat for a while &/or went for another ryde until any feeling of needing to do anything else passed, and as a result have had a thoroughly relaxing day. :yes: First one after a few hectic weeks of extended family visits, which were muchly enjoyed too; but now we do need & I reckon truly deserve a break!

hyea:
And for all of us here in Oz, that's pretty much April done & dusted, and no matter which part of the country we're in, the weather's telling us in no uncertain terms that our Autumn is rapidly drawing to a close! Catch y'all next month! :thumbup:
