Excuse me, while I kiss the sky …

It is unbelievably beautiful up here this afternoon, and so, I am going to sit on my sunny, warm, back deck. Maybe take photos, and enjoy this wonderous place where I live. Perhaps, some photos after sunset … but maybe I will be too busy living it to record it.

After sunset. I lived it, and I recorded it, and as soon as I find my A/B cord, I will download then upload some shots of the beauty of where I am blessed to call home.

This is my deck. It is only 8 ft. wide, so I plan on expanding it.

It’s is not much of a deck, yet, but it makes up for it in views.

This is what I see all day, every evening, and every sunset. Am I blessed or what?

And the sunsets can’t be beat! That is a Big Leaf Maple, getting ready to bud out. Spring is almost here!

  • Ah !!! Yes !!! , you have found your spot on this Earth,,,, what a treasure that is ,,,, now protect it with all that you have got,,, and you are then a true Big Surian !

  • I love the title of this post and the fact that you took time to both live it and record it. The best of both worlds. I was lucky enough tonight at work that I went outside to empty the trash just as the sun was about to set. It took my breath away. All time stopped as I took it in. One of the treasures of where we live is not that we are surrounded by all this beauty but rather that we stop and take the moment to enjoy it, breath it in and, LIVE IT!!
