Went to the beach last weekend with the folks and got a few photos of the surf you might like to see. My son had never seen the surf before, so he was pretty nervous, but he loved the sand and he got to play with his new bucket and spade, which delivered sand to all the most inappropriate places with rapid abandon!

The tide was just starting to pull out by the time we left the surf beach, which you can see here. There is just so much beautiful landscape that I was hard pressed to pick the best pictures.

Well the holidays are pretty much over, back into it!

I went for a trip with the folks to visit my sister down south yesterday. The sun was shinning, with a gentle breeze, and we saw heaps of neat scenery on the way. Didn’t get a lot of photos, but there were a couple that worked kinda…

The wires in the background of the second pic are the power cables for the main trunk train line.

This is one of the most intensely colored roses I have ever seen! Wow!
