Family memories for sale

The Herald Sun published a personal piece I wrote about my family’s beach house at Sandy Point.  My grandparents built their little shack in the early 60s and spent all those summers in the backyard with the kids, baking under the sun on brightly coloured banana lounges and smoking cigarettes. I used to go tree surfing down there – this involved jumping off the beach lookout (in some spots a three metre drop) into the tea trees on the dunes below.
