Oh WOW !!!! (part 2)
Dearest Mom
Here are some more photos of Marie's fascinating home - this post is a bit photo heavy but I know that Nunu is hungry to see more of this home.................so here goes............
This is "Bob's space" - Marie's husbands deck................
He has collected a lot of old tree stumps - they are home to many creature - Australian bees - which are tiny - I did not know this........................
.....................on old "Queensland bed"......................
...........................home to many a possum, I believe...........................
Marie with their favourite teapot - she says they spend a lot time of time here on the deck...............
Bob's BBQ area....................
.......................just stuff collected over the years...................
Marie and a fridge from back in the "olden days"....................
.........there is quite a lot of "horsey" equipment around his deck..........
............the 2 dogs have their own double storey cubby house..................
......................a log fit for a "Princess"
The next lot of photos are of Marie's veranda..................
............... another lovely cupboard and a set of scales................
.........................a HUGE jar of buttons work well as a door stop......................
.......................this is the scene that greets you at the front door............................
Marie told me that the gate hanging on the wall is over a hundred years old ...................
..................Nunu, isn't this the most welcoming sight?........................
As I said before, Marie does the most interesting crazy quilting - after being to her house I can see why. Her collection of buttons, beads, lace, fabric etc is extensive..................
......................part of Marie's craft room...........and her stash................
Mom, I am going back to take some shots of Marie's garden which I know will interest you.

Mom, I am going back to take some shots of Marie's garden which I know will interest you.Marie's home is fascinating, it's almost like going back in time - when life was slow and a home was just that - a home - a soft place to fall.....
Thanks again, Marie for sharing your home with my family who live way too far away.
