Tuesday Treasures - Benches

 The older I get the more I appreciate a nice place to rest. Here are a few I've taken advantage of in the past. Not only do they provide a nice place to catch your breath, but they're also great places to watch for critters. Since I no long have a back porch in ranch country, these are my happy places. :)

Overlooking Old Hickory Lake

Overlooking the Mackinaw River

Overlooking the Illinois River

On a bench by the river's edge,
Waves and wind whisper secrets.
Fish splash, birds take flight,
Bunnies hop, squirrels scold.
Nature's rhythm hums in my ears, 
Bringing peace to a chaotic day.

  2. I'm so with you on benches. Yesterday was my birthday and I'm 74 years young. I love a good bench to rest.

    Have a fabulous Happy Tuesday. ♥
