Celebrity birthday’s on October 24:

Along with former great international swimmer Gertrude Ederle, our own Louise M. celebrated her birthday Oct. 24 at the ‘Beach Hut’ cafe Mollymook.

.

Cairns:

Mollymook showed off its own ‘Cairns’ showpiece (above) at Collers Beach this morning. An unknown artist put together this rock sculptor and (below) Popeye – Mick Purcill shows a different ‘Cairns’ structure at Mollymook Beach before vandals dismounted it. Stone cairns are considered an ancient art form, and are often constructed by balancing large rocks or stones on top of smaller ones. No mortar is ever used in making a stone cairn, which is what makes this feat so amazing. Cairns have been popular in many cultures since the prehistoric times. Pic below shows those in Ireland and Stonehenge.
