Just a little glimpse into where I'm hanging these days.
- Out back of the house, a rescued table and plastic chair, plus an old fish crate to rest my feet on, furnish a secluded corner to sit and read.
- An old crab apple tree provides a splash of pink joy while the stick fence seen in the background keeps the expectant garden contained (& deer out).
- One of many lilac bushes aburst with blooms.
- The woodpile grows in anticipation of winter, even though summer is not yet here.
A simple life.
Looks like a glimpse of paradise. smart work of making the deer fence. they are pretty creatures but they sure like to nibble... what do they say... fences make good neighbours.
ReplyDeleteExcellent application of that old adage about fences! The deer have acres of forest to graze in but prefer the garden salad bar, given half a chance. My little corner of the world is a pleasant place to be in many ways...which I try to remind myself daily.
DeleteIt looks idyllic - we have deer in the garden too, but fortunately they tend to graze on our hedges which helps to keep them trim!!!
ReplyDeleteSounds like a win-win situation, getting to admire the deer and getting the hedges trimmed at the same time. No matter how pesky they may be, it's always a bit of a thrill to catch sight of deer in one's yard isn't it?
DeleteParadise!
ReplyDeleteNo bias at all in your comment, I'm sure! ;)
DeleteThe last time I saw your house was in a blizzard, the snow was 8 feet high, and it looked like it would never all melt. Are you sure this is the same place???
ReplyDeleteThe summer and autumn are what keep me hanging on here, Jann. A lovely place to be in those seasons. It's always amazing how the lush green of early summer suddenly bursts upon the scene. We just won't mention the black flies and mosquitoes that come along with it.
DeleteHi Lynne, your llittle corner of the world seems to be a paradise! So very lovely and beautiful! I love the pictures of the truck! All of them are outstanding and amazing.
ReplyDeleteHave a happy, happy weekend and all my best from Austria

What a delight to have a visitor from Austria! I am very pleased to make your acquaintance, Eliasabeth, and am happy you enjoyed your visit here.
DeleteWhat a lovely retreat. I could be happy there too.
ReplyDeleteI imagine it would be a nice respite from all that gad-abouting you get to do, Jenny! Want to swap for awhile?
Delete;-)
Oh Lynne,
ReplyDeleteit's me again. Thank you so much for your charming words and your lovely visit! It's wonderful to have you around!
All the best my dear
Elisabeth
I don't get out much...but will certainly endeavour to walk your way whenever I do!
DeleteIt looks peaceful and lovely, Lynne.
ReplyDeletePeaceful. Homey. Yes.
DeleteYo, Homey! ;)
DeleteJust puttin' the "ho" in "homey!"
Delete:-)
That looks so beautiful!! Find another crate for my tired old feet and I'll bring over the box of bubbly!!
ReplyDeleteNo problem! I'm sure there's another crate out in the shed/garage...just your size. Bring on the bubbly--things are far too quiet around here!
DeleteLooks like a peaceful enough place, but if that Sagittarian shows up with bubbly, I imagine all that could change in a hurry... :-)
ReplyDeleteHere's hoping, Owen!
