This is just one of the places I love to sit outside. It's especially wonderful in the summer heat as this is in shade three quarters of the day. How lovely it is to just sit and dream, think, or plan your day. I have gone out and even in the chilly weather we have been having. There is just something about taking a deep breath and feeling it fill you body and soul. Ah, but alas we cannot stay too long or that chill turns to numbing cold (well, maybe not that! cold) but let's face it, it is still winter even here in N.California. So maybe we will bring our tea inside. Speaking of tea, my Jim made me a cup of tea from the "Chew". Daphane Oz had it.....Any tea brewed, I used Green Tea, a squeeze of lemon, cayenne pepper and honey. The first swallow grapped my throat but then it was wonderful. It certainly helps my nagging cough. Try it !
Here are two of our Roosters. Aren't they pretty. Well enjoy them from the picture because in real life they are awful. Just ask Rose who is beside them. I guess from what we have read that is their nature. These two seem to be twins. We now have put all of our Roosters in their own area.

I think it looks very old and like I found it in the potting shed out back behind the old garage. You can find treasures when you least expect it. Must get a plant in it this spring. Maybe a pretty flower or herb.
Now here is a pretty lady all dressed up and picking flowers. Isn't she sweet. I also got her at the Dollar Store. No, I don't really go there a lot but when I do I always find unique things. Especially in the spring when you want to fix up your yard. Have you seen the prices of some of the yard ornaments at the big box stores. Yikes! Anyway here is a way to decorate especially a small yard without breaking the bank. Here's to Spring ! May it hurry and arrive. Tootles
These are just some of what I took. I tell you I could just ride around for hours just looking at all the houses. The whole feeling of be...
