Microfiction Monday #41 ~ where a picture paints 140 characters, or even fewer. Susan says:
Photos will be from my own archives; illustrations are from Dover Publications' free clipart sample newsletter.

JEN! What's this syrupy, starry stuff in the drawer near our tickets?
What's that? It's your drawing?
FIRST prize?
Our trip to Hawaii?

I love a sunburnt country / A land of sweeping plains / Of ragged mountain ranges / Of droughts and flooding rains / I love her far horizons / I love her jewel-sea / Her beauty and her terror / The wide brown land for me / ~ Dorothea Mackellar (1885-1968)

I keep forgetting it is always the next day for you in your neck of the woods.
Songs can touch the heart in places prose cannot. Thea Gilmore words from a song whose title doesn't do justice to her lyrics (so I will omit it) hit my heart with :
"No shoulder is strong enough when the sky begins to cry."
Having survived too many hurricanes that line touched me in ways it wouldn't others.
Have a lovely new week, Roland
Your story fit within the requirements nicely and with a happy ending!
It's interesting to see the different takes folks come up with for this meme. Very good!
What a different and great take on the picture. A trip to Hawaii? Yes, Please!
Have a great Tuesday, and week!
A happy story! Thanks Gemma! Nice one.
Wouldn't that be a nice surprise to win a trip like that! Of course, I'd like to win a trip to Oz! Have a great week!
Fun, happy take for MM, Gemma! Delightful! Always interesting to see all the different takes on the same pic! One of the fun things about it! Have a lovely week!

Wow a trip to Hawaii!!!
A new twist to our MM.
Love your take!
I'd take a sticky syrupy picture for a trip to Hawaii. I'm afraid if I find syrupy things, it's most likely to just be syrup...
Nothing wrong with syrup as long as it golden. I've gone for science for today's 140
I think the drawing should be taken out of the drawer and hung on the wall in a place of honor! Great job this week.
I wonder how you made such a different positive thought out of that. My story is by far the most negative
Now I want to know what was that syrupy, starry stuff and why was it in the drawer. I'd have been worried that the tickets were ruined!
Interesting take on this week's picture--a more positive one than most of ours!
Hey, I wish I could draw my way to Hawaii! I laughed, and loved this.
