Pining for summer . . .

Desperate for summer:  here’s what I pine for!

Chinaman's Beach, Maria Island

Ditto

Millingtons' Beach, named after grandfather.

Rheban Beach.

Rheban Beach from above Rheban House.

Stapleton Beach . . . a fave and very private.

The Point . . . shallow, warm and only five minutes from the shack.

So you see, dear Northern Hemisphere friends, while you bake and sweat, I hear your groans of despair and sympathise.  But I pine for my summer beaches and swimsuits, sun, freckles and swimming.

Can you see why?
