PASSING THOUGHT: I'm at it again this morning - comparing temperatures where my son and daughter live...
— Gemma Wiseman - on Bunurong land, Kulin Nation (@AuraGem) July 6, 2021
Maslin Beach, SA - 11°C° - my son
Temora, NSW - 1°C° - my daughter
My Dromana world, VIC - 7°C°

PASSING THOUGHT: Victorians - You are just great! Hang there! Avoid bustling places...Travel safely... Maintain the mask supply... I think the ingrained shock of our pandemic lockdowns has made us wary...That's our strength...
