Bpth seasons just hold so much promise!<br /><br />Marcus I started thinking about this past winter again after reading your comments, and came to the conclusion that it's <i>definitely</i> been a dry winter because I only used the clothes drying rack thingy a couple of times this year - instead of every weekend... Get well soon! This is the second winter I've avoided being sick. (I was sick in March, instead, though.)<br /><br />Thanks Isaak! I hope it's cool and clear while you're here, too. Spring can be really changeable... Summer in Perth is completely different to Singaporean weather, I reckon. The hot dry heat is something to experience. But yeh I agree about the flies :(<br /><br />Oh, thanks, Infoaddict! Definitely worth a closer look. And I <i>love</i> your description: <i><b>spoinggggg</b></i>!!! Indeed! :) Thank you Iris :) Same here, I think. Bpth seasons just hold so much promise!

Hopefully, it'll be cool and clear weather while I'm there. :)<br /><br />I really can't stand the summer in Perth even though I live in Singapore (where it's summer all through the year). It's really too hot and the flies are everywhere.<br /><br />Well, looking forward to experiencing Spring. And meeting up with you. :) Happy Springtime!

I really can’t stand the summer in Perth even though I live in Singapore (where it’s summer all through the year). It’s really too hot and the flies are everywhere.

Well, looking forward to experiencing Spring. And meeting up with you. :)

Changes of seasons do that to me. :P It has been a dry winter because I don’t remember many wet and stormy days.

Spring is my favorite season of the year, followed closely by fall. These are the times of the year when morning sunshine holds so much possibility, and evening twilight is so soothing. Happy Spring!
