Another Busy Weekend

Another busy weekend with house renovations made for little opportunity to report on anything interesting for posting. I'm currently on my third room of the house which happens to be the study. Sanding woodwork, undercoating the ceiling and walls so that I can paint the top coats and the woodwork next weekend.

Melbourne had some great weather with temperatures in the high 20s. The nearby beaches here in Mentone to Mordialloc drew the sun worshippers out while on Sunday the annual "around the bay in a day" cycling event was staged.

Seeing that summer is just around the corner, I thought I'd post some pictures of our local beach crowds from days gone by.





RAGING FIRES IN NEW SOUTH WALES
While local residents in Bayside Melbourne enjoyed early summer conditions at the beach - spare a thought for our New South Neighbours currently experiencing the most devastating fires in memory with over 200 homes destroyed and a fire front of 300 kilometres.

  1. Love the beach photos :) In the top photo, what is the building facade on the left? It seems to be made of brick.

    1. Hels, I've been searching for where I found that photo and as yet been unsuccessful. It may have come from the Kingston Council Historical site or Photos from the Vic Museum.
      I'll keep searching now and let you know when I do. You've got me intrigued.
