Went looking at the flowers yesterday.

Left from Dongara to Mingenew and checked at the centre where we told to check at Morawa..

A very helpful lady gave us some maps and advice on where to look.

Wreath flowers were in a large clump on EVASIDE road just before Bell Rd
Is 17km from Morawa.

There is a samll noice on a pole on the l/h side where they are.

Turn at the SECOND Wreath flower sign not the one by the grain silo.

Then went to Canna and got a map from the old store.

Look at the left end for the tree growing thru the building.

Take the wallk out the back of the Church quite a few patches of Orchids

on way to rock outcrop

Wreath flowers on R/h side of road 7k north of store on wide gravel road.

Not as good as previous ones but still coming out

There is a hill with a 70k sign on it go over hill to P sign on left Flowers opposite that.

Also some nice flowers on the track where it says NO CARAVANS.

It goes straight ahead when the road from Canna veers right.

Go up past the white can with the arrow on it.

Retraced back to Morawa and went to Three Springs but ran out of the

flowers pretty quickly south of Morawa.

Didnt go to Coalseam as lady said flowers were fading there and we went two

weeks ago.

Wife wanted to go to the Talc mine at Three Springs for some samples

All were a bit too rough for skin application ROFL

All in all a great day 420k all up.

What we do to keep SWMBO happy .

Now sitting in van at Dongara in a full gale.

Cheers

Could be worse Graham, you could be sitting here in Perth in a full gale. Probably a good idea to keep the cruiser hitched to the van to hold it down.... :)

Cheers
