Pretty much a non-drinker now though- apart from surf trips.

For anyone who's familiar with the King's Beach, Happy Valley area and the northern outlet from Pumicestone Passage this shows the new Bribie Bar crossing.

That's pretty awesome. You can see where the cabal estate has increased the tidal prism and changed the location and angle of the ebb tide.

Yep. Over the last 5 years or so, the canals have pretty much doubled in size so the water flow is greatly increased.

It's all pretty low Vic. Along the now sealed off beachfront and the canal estates which were built from ti tree swamp. On the right is Caloundra proper which is.a.lot higher.
We're in the middle of the canal area but not on a canal.
Probably only another 10 years or so here for us so I think we'll we ok. 🤞

Funny, I didn't realize it autocorrected to cabal!

It's done pretty much what I told you it would.

I can see how easy that would be. The first two would be pretty much done in a single gulp. Kicking back in the tropics, too easy. Washed out daily with epic surf. These blokes whose muscles can't recover are just half-men with shit metabolism, don't let them shame you into some sad sack cube monkey routine. Be you, a God of Dionysian Hand Jive.
