Five Photos; Five Stories – Day 2

19 Comments/ 4237/ 2

Revisiting a series of posts I did in 2015. Enjoy.

The rules of Five Photos; Five Stories are to post a photo a day for five consecutive days and attach a story to the photo. It can be fiction or non-fiction, a poem or a short paragraph. Oh yes, and each day nominate another blogger for the challenge. Thanks to Dianna of These Days of Mine for tagging me to do this challenge. A great one for this time when I am feeling super busy and need a simple blog challenge.

Aussie mailbox


It was a fun day of exploring the countryside in Australia.  Aussies are a funny breed.  You never really know what is going to come out of their mouths and I found out early that my “share everything” way of life was something that should probably not be my norm while I lived there and had a husband who valued his job.

I loved our time in Australia and when we were able we took trips around to all of the sights and sounds of the country.  We were not there long enough to explore everywhere we did get a good glimpse into life in Queensland and loved being able to experience that.

One day when we were driving through the countryside we happened up on this mailbox.  Honest to goodness—–I made Chris back the car up so I could take a picture.  I am not sure how the postie knew there was mail to go out  as I did not see a flag of any sort but it obviously worked well for a re-purposed use.   Don’t you love how ingenious this is to use an old non-working microwave for a mailbox?  I know I do and hope it made you chuckle today.

I loved this book! It had my interest from the very first page and was my "airplane" book on a recent trip. Author Mary Kubica created believable and interesting characters that the reader learned to identify with and care about. Mi...

This is quite a book! I had it recommended to me by several people and while I thought it might be a little dark and depressing it made me have a better understanding of what life in this time period was like. The strength of the huma...

Another great book by John Green. I have become a huge fan of John Green since my reading of A Fault in our Stars and this book was another that did not disappoint me at all. It was a story of a child prodigy, a lot of anagrams, and a b...
