Hello Elle and Rusty!

Glad you had a great day Saturday, but I am not really surprised you
were so tired yesterday evening! Saturday had been a long day!
The children must have been exhausted -

Already 32C here with no breeze! This heat is supposed to increase
and stay with us until Wednesday afternoon, but then back to
thunderstorms! It seems to be the name of the game this year:
a few days of extreme heat followed by thunderstorm, and we
start all over again. Is it the same with you?

and it seems that the riders are going to be very hot indeed:
32C-35C most of the way, Tireing, even if they are used to it.
