Out where the river broke, The bloodwood and the desert oak
Holden wrecks and boiling diesels, Steam in 45 degrees
Summer has roared. 23 before sunrise.
My calendar marked from last year, 'geese gate'. I look for the topless sheila with 2 geese in a pram. No luck.
Search the skyline for the purported PEP oil rigs, nothing. You got me worried Greg Cole. The trusty shark boat works towards Queenie.
My path up the beach stops me in my tracks. 12 bluebottles. I shit myself. Some debate, we swim anyway. Matt goes back to bed.
Sarah and Jon don't read the temp, suit up, stretch and literally jump for joy. I love these guys!
Trooper, Reed, Wetsuit Shane and anon, ready to smash it
Lainey holds apart Jocelyn and Anita, who are master bakers. The line in the sand has been drawn, and the Inaugural B&B Bakeoff challenge has been laid. Each has proclaimed that their scrolls are elite and cannot be bested. Nominations for the judging panel are welcomed.
Angus the newbie is ready to go. Welcome mate and enjoy
Graham & Geoff are missing their ironmans, nice to have a chat legends.
Chippo explains to me the difference between a cougar and a lion.
The masters of the universe talk hedges and arbitrage and interest rates and other irrelevant stuff
Rusty and Caroline’s Pitch report
Water temp rising, look for bait schools, that bring in the salmon, that bring in the bigger predators looking for breakfast. Cameron tells of the shark shaped seaweed patch he ran into yesterday. Still nervous he swims inside my line. The weed is disappearing. Someone spotted a grey nurse at the point. No breeze no blue bottles. Head for the Turtle House, found Billy waking up the other day. Do they sleep upside down? Lainey looks at me like I’ve escaped from an asylum. Back & 200m off the point a tap on the foot, the drinks express has caught us, like maimed road kill we flap along in admiration. Another swim, great friends, despite expectations of dangers, we survive and start another day.
How can we dance, when our earth is turning?
How do we sleep, while our beds are burning?
Four wheels scare the cockatoos, From Kintore East to Yuendemu
tap on foot
zoom zoom... this gang is fast
The western desert lives and breathes, In 45 degrees
Thanks for the swim & coffee Team. Don't let your true love run cold!
