Suburb #17 Theodore

From big Wanniassa it was over to little Theodore who ironically had a slightly larger party at the shops going on.

Theodore is named after Edward Glanville Theodore who was a QLD premier and also Treasurer twice (after being forced to resigned in the middle following the Mungana affair when we has found to have corruptly profited by authorising the purchase of a copper mine by the state). Streets are apparently named after people involved in the civilian war effort during the wars.
Theodore is really very small. The local shops are impressively just a local shop - i.e. the bottle shop (glad they have their priorities right around here). But unlike Wanniassa the locals managed a band for their party, plus cool streamers and chalk drawings :)
 There are some gorgeous trees in Theodore and overall it feels very peaceful and quiet.
 Even the mushrooms seemed happy there :)
