storm.

when i suggested yesterday that a little wind might come in handy to help re-arrange the somewhat dated amenities block at the local caravan park i didn’t anticipate such a swift response. we had 40 kmh winds today. the brownish haze in the background is the sand carried out to sea by the storm. someone…
