Late last year, I packed up my worldly goods including my two furbabies and moved interstate to Southeast Queensland. Since then I’ve spent quite a lot of days exploring the areas around where I now live.
Southbank pool area in the heart of Brisbane.
Christmas Lightshow in Brisbane Xmas 2022.
I’ve had fun investigating some of the nearby islands as well as the bay area to the north and south of Brisbane.
Coochiemudlow (what a name!) Island ferry pier.
Beach bar! Which had some fabulous views over the bay.
Great views on this walk on Nth Stradbroke Island.
From Wellington Point you can walk across a sand bar (at low tide) to the small King Island – see below pic.
I also took a few drives around Caboolture and Deception Bay areas.
This sculpture was in Centenary Lakes Park.
Near Deception Bay
As you can see from my photos, I haven’t ventured far from the coast however I have plans later in the year to explore Toowoomba and I’d love to visit Charleville and the Queensland Outback again.
I have far too many places on my bucket list so I had better get on the move! Happy travelling.
Is he her enemy or her future?
When a handsome stranger arrives in a remote outback town, Maggie Hayes’ almost forgotten dreams are re-awakened. For too long, she’s denied her adventurous spirit and now suddenly her future is filled with wonderful possibilities. At least it will be if only this intriguing man isn’t her beloved town’s enemy.
A past tragedy has led Jace de Haven to live without the complications of family or companionship. Yet when he meets small-town Maggie, her big heart and vibrant community spirit show him what he’s been missing. Can he find it in his soul to forgive and allow old wounds to heal?
But to have the future they crave, Maggie and Jace will need to take a leap of faith - together.

Under an Outback Sky is a love story and the fourth book in the Edge of the Outback series. The book is about forgiving the past and finding the courage to forge a new direction in life. If you love reading about small towns, country and rural communities (like Bindarra Creek romances) then you’ll love this series – similar to books by Barbara Hannay, Bella Andre, Melody Grace, Nora Roberts, Maisey Yates, Sarah Williams, Susanne Bellamy, Annie Seaton, Fiona McArthur, Heidi McLaughlin.

Brisbane looks like a beautiful area and city. I would love to live very close to the ocean.

DeleteMy partner's family lives in Brisbane. It is a lovely city with some delightful day trips. It is usually way too hot and humid for me though. Keep writing - I hope your latest book goes well.
