An Impromptu Stop at Cunderdin Hill
Our visit to Cunderdin Hill was breathtaking, a sea of pink everlasting daisies.

Sometimes, the most pleasant activities you encounter on a road trip are the ones you didn’t even plan. I really enjoyed that.
Because of record-setting rains in Western Australia, the wildflowers have been predicted to have a promising spring. Even though we are still in winter, it was very much looking like spring our four-hour drive north…
We’ve been to Coalseam Conservation Park a handful of times before, but we read that the flowers were ready to burst open up there and after about 5 rainy days straight in Perth, it was very enticing to go 4 hours north just to escape the wet and windy conditions...
in Perth, the start of spring 2016 has been declared the most cold and wet in decades. This kind of spring weather has made our outings hard to plan, and has us watching radar maps a lot as we travel. One of our first stops today was Lake Ninan near...

In Australia, Father’s day is in September. So is the Kings Park Wildflower Festival. Why not combine the two? That is what Naomi and I had decided.

We went back to look for wildflowers, but this time Jamie and Naomi went with us. We did come across these inch ants… And later we met this little critter, a Bobtail Lizard. There is hardly a way, even in photos to describe how many everlastings there were and their...
Some scenes of what there is to see, driving through the Wheatbelt of Western Australia. We even got to see some Everlastings. The hills were colored with Patterson’s Curse. The setting sun put a glow on the Salmon Gums. A perfect end to a perfect day together.
