As the heat of the day gave way to afternoon shadows, the dirt parking lot began to fill. A tree with branches laden with shoes blocked the sun over a now-occupied picnic table.

BEAN S SCENE. At the ripe old age of 29, Eleanor (nicknamed
Bean) is finally escaping Boston, her beer-chugging paramour,
and a terribly boring job, all for a chance at self-discovery
as she travels across America. Moving from city to city, she relies
on friends to help her get on down the road in Sleeping With
Random Beasts, by Tucsonan and first-time novelist Karin Goodwin.

Crime Survivors, a powerful exhibit on display in the TMA

FORMER Mornington Peninsula Shire councillor Hugh Fraser has weighed into the accusations from sides sparked by Cr David Gill tracking Nepean MP Chris Brayne as he “meets and greets” at shopping centre.
Mr Fraser provided a photograph which he says proves that contrary to what Cr Gill claims, Mr Brayne does have group meetings with councillors.
He said it was “silly nonsense” for Cr Gill to allege Mr Brayne would not meet with the whole council.
