Summertime High

Temperatures soared last Friday to an all time high. I went out to take some photos just before sunrise on Friday. So little cloud does not make for a spectacular sunrise picture. But then the sun rose like a flaming ball. I was ever so grateful that I did not have to be anywhere in particular on that day, that I did not have to wear a suit, that I had a naturally cool place in the house to retreat to at mid-day when it was so still you could hear the wasps buzzing around and that I can walk to the beach to cool down.

Lone tree on the headland, just before sunrise

And then the flaming sun popped over the horizon.
After the furnace heat subsided, Hammer and I went to the beach for a swim just as the storm arrived. Wonderful feeling running across the sand in the rain to dive in the water. Reminded me of camping on the reef in summer.

I am  running every other day on sand. Muscle feel stronger. So far so good -  baby steps. 
Hoping to rebuild muscle strength before attempting to run on the road.
