Reflections On A Summer's Day
To sit in the shade on a fine day and look upon verdure is the most perfect refreshment. ~ Jane Austen
After all of the rain we have had this week, I'm ready for some sunshine and something refreshing to drink... I'll be there --just let me know when!!!! ha
Jane Austen was so right and today as I am ending my visit with my friend here in Pennsylvania, we added your lemonade, and that also made a perfect refreshment...

Today we have sunshine! I can join you with fun in the sun! Ready to play?
so lovely, that is all I can think of it.
I've had a beautiful change of scenery - and enjoyed some most precious times of "sitting"! Your picture here makes me long for more :)
Amen to Jane's words! I couldn't agree more, especially when it's hot and humid. The picture you've posted is so tranquil and inviting, too.
I once heard reference made to "the sanctuary of shade" and it is certain that for everyone on hot days. Thanks be to God for the blessing of shade!
Hugs!
Simply a lovely, sunny moment. Thank you.
That Jane Austen -- she knew her stuff. :-)

Your photos make me catch my breath. I go to your blog for a peace-reset during my day sometimes.

Looks like a lovely spot to just sit and while away a few hours.
Lovely!
She has a way with the words and you have a way with putting them together with the photos. I love that scene Jo, such an idyllic photo.
This is just the spot to go to for a peaceful day. I'll be right over.....
Beautiful photo. You have such a lovely home.
