I was tagged by Esther over at A Catholic Mother in Hawaii for a Book Meme. Now, I know I was tagged for another book meme like two months ago - and I still haven't gotten to that one - but that one requires thought and this one - not so much.
The rules are:
1. Pick up the nearest book (of at least 123 pages).
2. Open the book to page 123.
3. Find the fifth sentence.
4. Post the next three sentences.
5. Tag five people.
"As we approached from the airport, the bishop pointed out a village. In the middle of the village was a ghost house-the house tambaran.
"I remember vividly my first acquaintance with a ghost house."
And now I'm going to leave you hanging there - don't you want to know more about ghost houses?
The book is "Maria: the true story of the beloved heroine of The Sound of Music" by Maria von Trapp.
It's too bad those were the chosen sentences, I rather like the ones where she's with Bob Hope and he introduces her to Jack Benny who he calls the second greatest comedian in the country, and she asks him "who's the greatest?" Or the time she's visiting a cannibal tribe and asks which part tastes best. But, you'll have to satisfied with ghost houses.
Now I have to tag people.

Oh my goodness. How fun. I guess you go to page 123 because it's well into the story and you're likely to get an interesting, in-the-action sentence?
Consider me done. And, Barrie, consider yourself tagged. :)
Thanks, Chris.
Oh, this is fun. I'll have mine up later today.
