Oh your post made me enjoy my quiet, peaceful deck time even more! Hummingbirds? Yes…. A little toad, hopping amongst my pots of florals/herbs/succulents/bloomers? Yes……Our two dogs hanging near me, enjoying everything that dogs should enjoy, panting slightly as they gaze about like a couple bobble heads. Yes……

The early sounds of fall surround me and fortunately, our home is on an amazing private farm lake with enormous old trees. Sigh. The remarkable nuances of nature combined with a couple small fountains splashing in the water and the occasional deer family and loads of birds and sun setting and…..

Well I digress. But cheers to you! May we all find a space with peace, comfort, solitude. All.

Thank you for the images and the inspiration.

And Pinot…..another glass of Pinot as I anxiously await primary returns.
