Photo taken when the Hinze Dam on Gold Coast started to rise in 2012 to new water levels.

This magnificent gum still had green foliage, but today is just dead timber, the nearby shore also has far more dead timber as well.

Windy at Miami Beach, Gold Coast, about midday.

Can see suspended sand in waves after stirring by TC Alfred recently.

Usual strolling nymphs with friends, along the walkway, and a couple on boards in the surf.

A pleasant stop for a coffee today.

Also a reminder TC Alfred had passed through not long ago.

About 40 years ago mum gave my wife a small orchid in a pot.

Every year since then the plant has grown larger.

In March each year, near wife's birthday, it produces beautiful long lasting spikes, covered in flowers.

At left remnants of an old slipway in Biggera Creek on Gold Coast.
The of ramp had 2 sets of tracks for a pair of boat cradles.
Before the mangroves grew, there were pontoons with cruisers moored.
And the concrete slabs had sheds big enough for large boats enter.
Closed many years ago
