Nice relaxing view, Christine.

Any day you wake up on the sunny side of the grass is a good day.

So lovely Christine! I can almost hear the frogs under the Cattails and Willow while dragonflies dart above the water.

"My work is loving the world. Here the sunflowers, there the hummingbird — equal seekers of sweetness. Here the clam deep in the speckled sand. Are my boots old? Is my coat torn? Am I no longer young, and still not half-perfect? Let me keep my mind on what matters, which is my work which is mostly standing still and learning to be astonished." — Mary Oliver, from Messenger

Looks so peaceful! Makes me want to pack a picknick box and spend the day lazing around - can't remember when we last we did that!

I just can't get enough of this banner!! I find myself working away within the site, deep in thought and all of a sudden this banner catches my eye and a feeling of happy peace just washes over me

Oh wow, thank you all for the

and

s! And all the nice comments too.

It is a peaceful place. Just like @nativeplantlover imagines it would be, lots of frogs under the cattails and dragonflies, some skimming the water while others dart above. It's our place to sit and relax, sometimes catch a fish and release it back in the water. @Toni the view does the same to me.

Thank you again all!
