  3. Oh wow, Kate it’s 3.00pm Saturday afternoon, here on top of the hill in Geelong, and the temperature hasn’t got over 8’C today…. I had to go and do a little plumbing job before lunch, and promptly got wet and cold while I was out….. I’m home now, I’ve turned the heater up, and slowly starting to warm up…. I think i need a bit of the Wizard’s magic before I start thinking about a summer beach

    Definitely feels like Antarctica

  4. Ooh! Beach more, stress less! 😉
    I love the beach! We used to live 7 miles from the Pacific Ocean…and we had a blast living there! Such GREAT memories! Of course, our family station wagon had a lot of sand in it! 😉 😀
    One of my friends says, “I think beach therapy should be covered by our health insurance.” 😉 😀
    HUGS!!! 🙂

  6. I provide someone else’s lyrics in response to this. And Kate, if you are not already familiar with them, you should surrender your Australian citizenship.

    Gypsies ride through wonderland
    I took my horse down to the sand
    Underneath a thousand miles of sky
    I watched the waves come tumbling down
    I heard so many different sounds
    It cleared my head and eased my worried mind

  10. The beach makes me smile. Went there Thursday. Was good….
    Gonna post a link as a new comment as I’m assuming a whole long thing will show up so you can delete after seeing.

  11. I don’t like to lie on the beaches and in crowds of people. I prefer walking along the seashore.
    On the beach I was making sand cakes with my grandson …
    best regards

  15. A few years ago when at the beach with family we were walking along the waters edge and found a ladybug (lady beetle) nest… they were swarming out of it. An odd place for such a nest as I thought they mostly stayed inland by trees 🐞🐞🐞

    • Do ladybugs really build nests? No, they don’t. They are very abundant in warm tropical climates where temperatures are almost always in their favor. If the ladybugs live in a region where winter is experienced, they overwinter and hibernate/diapause when temperatures reach below 55 °F (13 °C).
      Maybe it wasn’t a nest per say, just a whole bunch of eggs hatching at once! 🙂
