I walked through this scene with B and the kids when we stopped in Murchison. It was quite a chilly 10 degrees and the locals that we talked to remarked on how I had a t-shirt on - well I don't feel the cold much so I explained where we were from (the far north where it is much warmer). In front of this second hand shop there were 2 veterans selling poppies in preparation for ANZAC Day (Australia, New Zealand Army Corps) so we donated all the coins we had and wore a poppy each.
Linking up with Skywatch Friday and Tom's Signs.

...yep, someone's trash is someone's treasures!
Good to get the poppy.
Junk and disorderly
Good sign, so true, but weeee.... Just saw a man in a t-shirt yesterday and thought, yep, wearing a t-shirt, too. Plus a jumper and a jacket!!! ;-)
I remember when I was a kid selling poppy's for Veterans Day was a common thing. I never hear about it any longer in the US.
Love the name of the second hand shop. Weird to read that up north it is warmer, it's usually the other way around. :)
Good to support the poppy sellers. It's a big thing here in November when most people buy and wear a poppy.
Great shot.
haha, that's how Belgians behave - they see some sun and here they are - summer outfits, no matter the temperature. mind you - not me - the southerner ;-)
I enjoy looking around in stores like this!
Greetings and Salutations! I like to look at second hand stores. You never know what you can find there. Plus you can learn about antiques they each have their stories. People are already wearing shorts here in Illinois. I am still wearing my winter jacket with hood. LOL! To each their own.
I like going to flea market stores, excited to find anything from history. I call it a treasure hunt. Lovely skies, a great day to be out! Happy Friday!
