WA Big Trip Winter 2024. Day 69 - Swan Valley Perth to Goomalling via Toodjay and Calingiri. After a great time being stationary around Perth it was time to move on. I fund plenty of caches along the way and did a couple of nice Labs in Toodjay before lining up for a very nice morning tea in the bakery. I retired to the Goomalling pub for the afternoon and was joined by Sacada and Aquillus for dinner. we made plans for a day of series caching for the next day before a very cold night.After arriving and setting up at the Goomalling caravan park, I headed out for a visit to the four caches just outside of town. I like a good welcome sign. A nice mascot for the town and the cache was found and signed.Thanks for the cache ROSS195748242.13 TNLNVisited: World Traveling Gold GC A#6 & April OZ Mega 2019 A#395**Albida**
A bit of a quick trip to get some LGAs and see some sights. The storm certainly made a mess in some areas with broken trees, large pools of water and power outages. The later impacting our movements due to re fuelling constraints. Certainly hot glad to be in the air con for a lot of the time. We completed the signing duties and re hid. TFTC

The beauty of geocaching is learning about the origins of Goomalling's name and enjoying a trip to the wheatbelt. Tftc
Found on a trip to the west from South Australia., visiting friends and relatives, checking out the sites and finding caches of interest along the way.
The weather has been really good since I headed north of Perth. There has been no rain and the winds haven’t been too bad. Makes a welcome change from the previous 3 weeks when I was constantly beating my way into strong winds and it rained almost every night! I hope it holds out for the next couple of weeks as I head south end east on my way home.
This was a nice quick find thanks to the hint.

Quick find on our way north. Wildflowers are out and looking really fabulous across the road. Thanks ROSS1957 for placing this cache for our enjoyment.
Quick drive by on our way to Cunderdin driving Perth to Adelaide, touring on the way. Thanks for placing this here
Heading towards home from a maintenance run we wanted to stop and add smileys to the caches that had popped up since our last visit to Goomalling. This one turned out to be a nice park and grab simply because we were lucky enough to hit on the right spot straight away. We signed your log and returned your cache back to where we found it. Once again we have all smileys in Goomalling. TFTC ROSS1957
On our way home from Baldivis to north of Wubin and back in a nice big loop grabbing caches as we go. Nice to pick up some new ones since we were here last. I love the efforts towns have given in welcoming people to their wonderful towns! Thanks for the hide here ROSS1957
After a couple of nights in Minnivale, it was time to head home picking up a couple of caches on the way. Allied-oz and I picked off a few.
Allied laughed at this one with the backstory of me and possums. Surprised it didn’t surface last night.

Out in the Wheatbelt again for the second consecutive weekend. This weekend the plan was to attack a number of towns in the North Eastern Wheatbelt and attend the FOTT event in Minnivale. It was a terrific weekend. Thank you to all the COs involved in providing entertainment this weekend.
Quick pit stop on the way into Goomalling. Cheers ROSS1957!

Well it’s the starting point of our road trip to Kalgoorlie... what a beaut little town...
Quick stop here on the way to Mukinbudin. Log's full but easy enough to find a wee spot to make our mark. Thanks for setting this baby up for us.
Pulled over just short of GZ and made the quick find of the cache.
Did some maths and decided to leave the last couple of caches on my list for this trip for another time and headed for home pleased with the haul over the weekend.
——-
After conferring with the boss I organised for a leave pass for the weekend, that got extended for a second night, and headed out to the Wheatbelt to join fellow caches.
Day 3 started slowly but got fast quickly, I packed down the tent and loaded up the car before joining a group heading to the top of Kwolyin Rock to grab the cache before hitting the road.
With the slower day Friday this was going to be the big drive day picking up as many LGA’s as possible, I ended the day with 7 new LGA’s bringing the weekend total to 12 ticked off my list and getting closer to my 100 LGA’s by the end of the year.

Thanks ROSS1957 for placing this cache for me to find, this is find number 2264 for me.

Nice park and grab during a wheatbelt road trip. Log is full but managed to squeeze my name in - sorry didn’t have a replacement on me. TFTC
Stopped in Goomalling for the night and looked to see what caches were about. An easy find given the clue. All Good with the log. TFTC.
Out today to pick up some LGA caches. This was one of the ones I stopped at.

We are on a wander around the wheatbelt looking for wildflowers, Not really sure where we are headed but just taking it day by day. We passed through Goomalling and this is the only unfound one we have in the town or it used to be. Soon found the sneaky nano and continued on our way north.

A nice easy find in the first place we looked. Cheers for the hint!
This weekend has been some time in the planning and we were heading up this way to drive the Wheatbelt Way Trail and collect geocaches along the route. We also had GCA caches, Waymarks and Sighters on the radar which should break up the trip nicely. We had no set plans for accommodation and we decided that we would see where we ended up each day to set up camp. This cache was one that we targeted on our mini adventure. Cheers and TFTC.
G’day there ROSS1957, I was in this area today and found your cache Welcome to Goomalling GC735GA. I added my name to the log book at 7:59 am on 28 September 2019. A huge thanks to you for placing this cache here for us (and others) to find!
This cache find brings our total find count to 10955. Woohoo!!

Thank you! Being a public holiday, I took the opportunity to take a road trip to Dalwallinu for caches, LGAs and clues. Happy to make the find here on the way home.
Thanks for the great hint! On my way to Northam happy to get a quick find. Found 14 for the day this being 1# daylight find for the day after a late finish last night.
Happy Australia Day! What better way for a cacher to celebrate our national day than to pick up some great Aussie caches. While passing through Goomalling with ilook4geo, we decided to pick up a couple of caches in The town. This was a very easy find in the correct place and the log soon had both names added to the list. Thank you to ROSS1957 for this cache placement.
Hot and windy for Australia Day, but not too bad. Out caching with goingplaces2 and we had a fairly good day. All found caches had logs signed and were put back properly before we left. TFTC.
Found while on a trip over from Toodyay. Good to find some geocaches along the way. Nice artwork. There were a lot of longlegged guards hiding behind the art. Tftc
We headed out to the country to get away from the city and visit family, we took the opportunity to clean up a few on the map around the area. A nice quick find TFTC
