The photo above was taken by Stephen on his iPhone 5 when we were visiting Toodyay a few weeks ago. It was at the end of winter and there were lots of wildflowers even this early in the year. Now when I drive up to my mother’s place in Mt Helena I can see that the wildflowers are starting to fade. We are still having quite cool weather most of the time, with the odd really warm day.

It is hard to settle to anything, including getting ready to leave. Yet, some of the tasks are getting done each day.

I am still trying to decide what camera equipment to take, apart from the Sony A7RII and main lenses. I will have a small roller case as well as my smallish backpack for laptop, iPad and camera gear.
