Mingenew

We called into Mingenew this morning after leaving Coalseam. What a pretty little town. We were hoping to spot some orchids. As there was a sighting near the recreational center. No luck. They had probably been picked by someone wanting to press them. So annoying. Apparently it's a bit of a problem with some of the more unusual flowers.

They have the best book exchange on town. Set in a wonderful old bank. Had a lovely chat to the lady on duty about quilting and crochet while Graham swapped some books. Also the place to go for flower info.

The bakery was also fantastic. Loved the sign above there dog water bowl. An added plus was an excellent Arts & Craft show running in town. Picked up some yummy jams and relishes.

After some very hot days at Coalseam the weather has turn a bit cool and some light rain.

No idea what the orange flowers are. Were growing in a garden in the main street.

PS. Finished crocheting a Cocoon Shrug last night. Just in time for some cooler days. Hoping to get a matching beanie out of the left over yarn.Meer informatie
