Flame tree industrial park… The name got me thinking that it was both at odds with and appropriate to its function, so I did the thing that every question begs and googled it and sure enough there are a plethora of parks both industrial and otherwise around the world named after the Flame tree. In this case I could not help thinking that the tree was probably remnant vegetation from what occupied the land prior to it being an industrial park and hence the name. If I remember I must come pass this way again when the tree is in flower or should that be in flame!

It is high summer in Perth and yesterday the mercury hit 40 degrees C in the shade of this bridge. Fortunately there was very little wind so the fire risk was somewhat lower than we expected. Today the reverse was the reality and the temperature only reached 36 but the wind is strong and gusty.
