This weekβs round-up also carries a little nostalgia. Three years ago today, we woke to the news that the big seas had brought down our beloved Carriage Rock.
Gone from the landscape, but forever part of our Kenton story. π
Letβs not allow our rhinos to run out of time. This is our weekend to show up.
See you out there!
