Gracetown


We have had some great trips down to Gracetown this year. One morning on my early morning walks to Cobblestones the tide was really low and the reef exposed. I collected some abalone (too easy under those conditions) and took some great pictures. Leo loved racig across the semi-submerged reef. We came across a black swan swimming gracefully in the shallows at Huzzas. It was not at all frightened of us - although I did keep Leo on a tight leash.

Titty to Surf



Yesterday Angela, with Win and Jess's aid ran the inaugural Titty to Surf scavenger hunt to raise funds for Breast Cancer Foundation. It was a lovely spring day - fine and not too hot. I arrived at Ange's to find everything in full swing. The girls were dressed up as the 3 little pigs, Simon was carrying things to the start line and Jill arrived ready to help where she could.
Before 10 the first of the competitors arrived. Fantastic costumes. All put their hands in their pockets to buy raffle tickets for the cause. At 10.30 they were off and racing. Cars, bikes, scooters and on foot.
The support crew headed down to Swannie surf club and set up the finish line. The club were most supportive and helpful. Even before we had everything ready one team came in. There were lots of laughs at the finish as the competitors told of the fun they had busking, and completing all the tasks. The sausage and onion rolls were well received. I departed at about 1.30 and the party was only just starting.
Congratulations to the Titty to Surf team - till next year.
