I especially like the very relaxed posture of the kitty on the right!

The stained glass is truly gorgeous.

And I love the trees/shrubs all around you!

Happy Fourth to you and yours!

Ergo, the empty martini glass at lunch!

Yes, I told my husband the only better view would be the ocean.

Actually, it was very pleasant out on the deck--even in the middle of the day--not too humid or too hot. We are expecting thunderstorms this afternoon.

Thunderstorms/rain during the summer months.

Nice photos. Best wishes on the knee surgery.

Not looking forward to the rehab of the knee, but I will enjoy being able to walk again without painful limping.

Yes, I enjoy the thunderstorms!

Recovery and rehab is not fun, but well worth it in the long run.
