Thanks everyone. We are in Westonia tonight. It's about 3 hundred and something km east of home. It's about 9 km off the main highway and is a tiny town near a gold mine. The caravan park is brilliant.
Marina we are going on a historical tour of the Goldfields here. We will start from Coolgardie (tomorrow) and head out to Menzies, Laverton, Leonora and round there. Probably ending up in Kalgoorlie. Not great kms but lots of history.

All on our lonesome Judy. The other Model A'ers couldn't make it and our best friends just came back from a cruise and couldn't spare the $$$$.

Cookie, your holiday takes me back to the days we lived in Kalgoorlie ... many, many years ago.  We went over there to earn the finances to put DH through his college course ... the tall tales I could tell of life in the goldfields!!  Have a great time.

Waiting for the service man to come and check out our Air Conditioner.
Make some biscuits and if it remains fine will plant a Bay tree.

Good morning all. I am trying to catch up on everything. We've been keeping our motorhome very busy lately. Just got back from a roadtrip up to the Undara lava tubes in far north Qld and then back home through outback Qld and NSW. Had a great time but now it's back to reality with a big thud :)

Cookie your trip sounds great. Will you go to the Ballard sculptures? I would have loved to see them. Looking forward to some pics of your adventures. Have a great time.

Sounds fun Chookie. I have a bay tree in a big tub in the courtyard. When you have one within easy reach you wonder how you managed without it. Leaves go in the chooks' nests, in the carpet freshening powder, linen storage areas and of course in the cooking.

Hi Gayle. Yes we hope to get out to Lake Ballard tomorrow. The road was closed yesterday but it has been re opened.

Hi Gayle, nice to hear from you. Hadn't thought to put some Bay leaves in the Chooks nests.
Rained on and off most of the day. Man came to check out the AirCon. Went shopping. Tomorrow making Sweet Chilli sauce.

Hi CC, Cookie and Chookie [waves] I drop in every so often to "see" everyone and admire the delicious things you've all been cooking.
Today I'm sorting through thousands of photographs from our last trip. Australia is such a wonderful place! I'll put up a few of the more interesting photos in the holiday thread in a day or two (all going well).
