Firestone Bay was popping this weekend. Early dog walks to avoid the heat. High tide swims to mitigate the heat. Evening dog walks to avoid the heat again. + A piece of outstanding good luck.

On one of our walks we found this mirror in a yard give away. It was very hot to carry such a heavy thing home  so we hid it in a bobbing friends garden and drove around to collect it in the cool of the early morning. It is going to live on a wall in our yard.

For now it is propped at ground level but it will be mounted so that it reflects the Olive Tree.

The Olive tree is also planted in a pot that a neighbour gave away. Serendipitous finds.

Alongside the heat of the day a feisty wind sprung up this afternoon . My afternoon swim or dip was spent in a large rockpool. I only ever bother with it in the winter months usually . But today with the heat and waves pouring on it was like a salty jacuzzi.
