room with a view

a friend's front porch, overlooking the Long Island Sound
I stop to enjoy the view, breathe a little deeper and know beauty is where you find it.

Golden sunsets beg for a little attention.
I wish each of you a special weekend with sunsets, sunrises, pink skies, a bit of sand, the warmth of the sun and a view to open your eyes to outdoor rooms with views.
Happy Memorial Day weekend!

That is beautiful, I like how the cushions in the top picture reflect the green of the grass. Have a wonderful weekend!

The view is heavenly! Wishing you and your family a golden, fun and save weekend! Enjoy.... xoxo

I was expecting to scroll down and see that gorgeous view as one of your gorgeous works of art. I think you should do that. It would take many, many, many days and nights of being right there to capture the feel of it, after all.

Your friend is one lucky dog to have such a fantastic view. I think I'd have to elevate her to "best" friend status.

There is nothing that can evoke a sense of well being more than the ocean. We live within a few blocks of the beach and whenever I feel the need to reconnect and contemplate I am down there. It truly gives me a sense of purpose and reason for being. Your photos capture that feeling perfectly. Beautiful. Have a lovely weekend!

Beautiful.

Jess Constable said...

Oh! So pretty. I look out to the East so I don't see many sunsets over the water. But our sunrises are pretty neat.

Mrs. Blandings said...

Just in case I hadn't mentioned it - we do feel the lack of water here. Sigh.

Mrs. B-
All the more reason to head East.

Glorious! I am dusting off my lanterns and hanging them from the trees today. Planting up some herb pots and made my first salad with lettuce from the garden. Life is GREAT! Have a wonderful weekend!
