Best Seats in the Room Without Walls
This is where I take most of my sunset photos. This outdoor furniture is definitely not from Crate and Barrel or Frontgate or even that hoity toity GrandenRoad catalog which continues to arrive in my mailbox even though I have never ordered anything from them. This furniture is from the place in the woods where the pine heaved a big sigh two winters ago and then lay down to rest across my driveway. (Almost all the trees in my woods find some way to lay (lie?) across my driveway when they are ready to 'leaf' this world.)
And if I have been very good that day, and it has not rained recently, I can watch this masterful painting commence comfortably. If there has been a recent rain, the end of the log, where I place my butt, holds the water like a sponge and makes sooty marks on my back side as I ignore that icky cold wet feeling seeping through my shorts while watching the beauty unfold as shown below.
Maybe you need a waterproof cushion...but then again, looking at this view, there can not be another thing that you really need. Wet butt is just part of the package.
ReplyDeleteLooks idyllic.
Sunsets on water are some of my absolute favourites. I'd sit there, to, wet butt be damned.
ReplyDeleteThat's just fabulous - the whole dan g show!

ReplyDeleteI would make a reservation to linger there:)
ReplyDeleteNotice you have two seats - reserve the other for me. I love this kind of outdoor furniture. Two long logs by my drive are my favorite sitting place. The image is magnifient :)
ReplyDeletesuch a fabulous sunset photo - no wonder you don't pay any attention to the damp!
ReplyDeleteYou lie down, you lay something down, so those trees would be lying down before they "leaf" ;)
Lovely photos. I like your outdoor seating. :)
ReplyDeleteMy kind of furniture. You can almost hear the gentle ripple of the water.

I would put up with water seeping into my pants for that view! :D
ReplyDeleteSuch beauty. It's the part of the day which I love best when I'm at the cottage. Thanks for sharing yours.
ReplyDeleteI laughed when I twigged to your leaf pun. You went out on a limb with that one. ;)
What we have to go through to get a decent photo. Ha! I like your stumps and your dock, not to mention the view.
ReplyDeleteThat's definitely the best seat in the house, wet or not!
