:: Winter Swim

mfsprout_20140617_29.jpg

We knew it was coming but the weather was so good in May it was easy to think we might escape the cold claws of Winter.  But, the snow has fallen on the Alps, the first solid South swell has gone past us and those freezing South Westerly winds are cutting through the skin in the mornings.  Winter has arrived. Yesterday's South Swell has almost faded.  There's the odd 3ft set at the Queenscliff end of the beach and this size is suiting the low tide sandbanks much better than yesterday's 4-6ft swell.   There's some neat little running to be had.

Congratulations to local brewers of fine ales, 4 Pines Brewery on their 6th Birthday!!
