Diligence is a good thing, but taking things easy is more restful.” — Mark Twain
A quiet place to sit in the outdoors on an awesome day is my idea of indulging myself. I can read a book, or just sit quiet and let nature come to me. -- Photo by Pat Bean

And a bar of chocolate to go with the fresh air and good book!
Oh Yes!
Hi,
Looks like a lovely place to go and relax. 🙂
I could spend hours sitting on that bench! What a perfect spot for some reading and fresh air.
Great photo and I love Twain!
Will you share your bench? I promise to turn the pages of my book quietly. HF
It’s a public bench Harper. You’ll find it at Lake Walcott State Park in Southern Idaho, where I was campground host last summer. Be my guest. It’s a beautiful spot.

I can see myself on that bench, watching life bloom over and over again. I like the way you think!
That sounds like my idea of indulgence too. Lovely scene, Pat. 🙂
