Put the old kitchen table in front of screen
where I have a good view of the garden
and birdfeeders. Could sit here and have
my tea or some meals, with the overhead fan whirling
and see if there is anything special I want
Not gone from an area of the terrace but about an hour
and when returning - look what I spotted.
So, more aware then ever that something may be resting
among my plants.
Our life is shaped by our minds; we become what we think.
Suffering follows an evil thought as the wheels of a cart
follow the oxen that draw it.
Our life is shaped by our mind; we become what we think.
Joy follows a pure thought like a shadow that never leaves.

What a lovely place to sit and enjoy your gardens.
The snake skin is neat, even though I do NOT like snakes. I've seen them around through the years.
Have a wonderful weekend ~ FlowerLady
I have a small turtle that tucks in under my hosta leaves in this heat. I hope that he is ok because he has not moved for the entire day.
Absolutely love your table in front of the window. It will be wonderful to study and meditate there overlooking your changing garden view.

FlowerLady, Tabor and Lynn, thanks for visiting...
Wonderful place to take refuge from the heat! Perhaps this is the skin of a king snake who will help keep bad critters away.
hearing it is really hot your way. even the snake wanted to free himself of extra layers! hahha
great idea for your view - nothing like having the outside come inside for a comfortable union!
stay cool and camera ready!
love seeing the view from your window. take care and stay cool in this intense heat. Nancy
Charlotte, thanks for visitn.
Sky, I thought the same thing.
Nancy, I am so honored you made a visit. I think just as hot in Nashville, that is what my daughter's have passed on. Think it is cooler here by the woods - but not so :)
