A Sandy Beach Almanac
You've landed at Sandy Beach, NSW, Australia: Lat. -30.15331, Long. 153.19960, UT +10:00 – local map & zoom Google map. I live in a cabin on this beach, 25 kilometres north of the traffic and shops of Coffs Harbour, 600 km north of Sydney. My intention is to post observations of Nature and life within 1 km (1,000 paces) of my South Pacific home.

Sandy Beach Almanac is proudly twinned with Rosemary Lane. Say g'day to Stuart Buchanan, my WWW mate in the Antipodes, on the Isle of Wight, UK. The big difference between our sites apart from hemispheres â Stuart loves to cook; not just eat.

There are some who can live without wild things, and some who cannot.
... Like winds and sunsets, wild things were taken for granted until progress began to do away with them. Now we face the question whether a still higher 'standard of living' is worth its cost in things natural, wild, and free. For us of the minority, the opportunity to see geese is more important than television, and the chance to find a pasque-flower is a right as inalienable as free speech.
... We of the minority see a law of diminishing returns in progress, our opponents do not.

Hibiscus? That little thing? In Australia we call them miniature daisies.
