~ Theme ~ my cozy corner

2008.04.09
This is my cozy corner: the pond we built in our back yard. It's where I go to relax, regroup, practice Chi-Kung

I love to sit in this corner

and listen to the sound of the fountains and the birds (I have yet to take a decent photo of a bird!)


and watch the bubbles.


There are water plants


and fish


This monster is an albino catfish. He is supposed to be a bottom-feeder who keeps the pond scum off the bottom. Instead, he's the first in line when I feed them!

Sitting in my cozy corner I can smell the blossoms on the fruit trees


and the roses.....

and feel at one with myself and with the world

kimauman Carly, your spot is just wonderful. I can feel the 'heat' as I shiver here in WI. It snowed two inches last night! Your statues are also amazing--looovvveee the crane fountain.

jet28 What a beautiful garden you have - and what a special spot! I love #3 - I have a crane just like it but not hooked up to water yet because of our water restrictions.

Lynda You have a lovely tranquil garden. Water features and fountains are so relaxing and fragrant flowers while sitting listening to the sound of water and the birds are heavenly. Thanks for sharing your corner of paradise.

basisimages You have surpassed yourself, Carley. What a garden! Such beautiful design. And as for that rose #14, the superlatives run out...
basisimages · 2008-04-12: 02:20
777STAN The last two (#14 & #15) are two more excellent floral shots!

Of course, Are #3 & #4 really what we want to teach grandchildren to be doing at the table? Hmmmmm? Our little Joy imitates just about anything and everything these days, "O, Look, Daddy! I am like the bird and the fish in the pool!" "Yes, you are, Daughter! Now would you please go get the mop?...Thank You so much!" :}:}:}:}:}:}:}:}:}:}:}
