My partner said the other day that we won’t be going swimming down the beach anymore until the summer comes around again. How true. I saw snow on Mt Franklin as I was driving home yesterday. So here is a last hurrah for summer.

I realised that I never posted these drawings from one of our beach trips in late February.

The local high school was spending the afternoon learning surfing for sport (not in my day, boo hoo).

And last but not least, a screeching gull determined to get some hot chips for lunch.
