Cozy Corners-Outside

My back yard and patio is my favorite place in all of our home. It has cozy corners that I love to sit and relax in and have some lunch or look through magazines. A place to unwind.

The vines are coming back and my morning coffee spot is already for the summer.

Chimes are a necessity for me. They block unwanted noises and sing with the breezes.




The fountain has been cleaned and is now running whenever we are out there.

A space to get away without getting away. We could all use that with our busy lives.

Sunday love. A day with my family enjoying the yard and sun and a barbecue for later.

    That's such a wonderful getaway. I know you must love the fountain. We used to have one on our back porch until it got clogged and too difficult to maintain. I miss hearing it sometimes. Thanks for sharing your pictures with us.

    This is love! I love the wind chimes. The sound of it with the wind is very relaxing. The sound of the moving water from the fountain is likewise refreshing. Great place to chill out!
