Big Blow

I waited all day yesterday for the wind to drop but it never did.  I spied some teenagers coming back from partying on the beach last night around 9:30pm.  I am amazed they lasted that long. They all disappeared into the house for hire.   We had a dream month of calm, sunny, even warm weather, with temperatures into the high 20s.  Whilst it is not cold right now our beach is a mess.  I could not wait any longer. I picked up after the teenagers who left at least eight cans.  The rest of the beach was strewn with washed up jetsom.  I only went 50 metres before the bag was full.  I had to squeeze passed some bushes which says how much the water is driving up by the wind.  A particular theme this time was boat repairs. I picked up a two part glue gun, a large spatula and other squeeze tubes.  There were six plastic bottles and tubs, many lids and tops, as well as two lighters.  Probably have to do it all again tomorrow.
