Greetings on a warm 31st. of July.
I've finally put together a few surfing locations after a bit of a
hiatus. It's not that I have run out of sites, but that I have less
energy sometimes (like hot summer days), and what energy I have goes
into garden care or family visits...
Here are today's links:
