:: Spirit

For the last 20 years June Kilmister has hosted a Christmas breakfast for the walkers, joggers and early rising regulars of Manly Beach.  This morning June was with us in spirit only as her ashes made a final walk to South Steyne and out through the surf to be scatted adjacent to the Denison Street shelter at her request.  On a morning when most of Australia is reeling from the news of Philip Hughes death, its nice to be reminded of the opportunities that life presents us to effect the lives of others.   Cheers for the sweets June! Not much joy in the surf this morning, except for the joy of simply being in the water - it's real nice right now!  In Hawaii, the final of the last event of the year for the Women's World Tour is on right now!  Aussie Tyler Wright is in the mix and the waves look good too! There's a World Title on the line in this heat - If Tyler wins she'll surf off with Stephanie Gilmore!! Tune in right now here

Manly Artisan Markets - On tomorrow.  Go support your local makers!
