Here I am again happy as etc, mainly because I am able to wear shorts for a little while. It was cold again this morning, not as cold as it has been but I was reduced to jeans and sneakers!!

We visited the rather progressive Wongan Hills visitor centre this morning and as further evidence of vitality were greeted by knowledgeable people and found what else there was to see. From there 10 kms out of town to the Mt Obrien lookout which is very well set up 424 mtrs high and affording a magnificent view of the surrounding farmland. The impression we have is that this area has some very large farming companies operating very large farms. This is reinforced by the apparent lack of farm houses as you drive north.

From there through Dalwallinu, another town that shows a bit of pride, to Wubin and Wubin rocks where we planned to camp for the night. Lovely view but it was hard to find a level spot and nobody else was there.  So we moved westward to Buntine Rock where we have a couple of neighbours, always a good thing. I climbed the rock which was not as grand as some that we have seen but still afforded a good vista over forrest and broad field farms.
