Mercy Me!
My balcony on 3rd floor was/wasn't a place of joy for me. It never seemed to be what I wanted it to be, a place to read, take pictures, paint... an extension of me out there. It truly was uninviting.
But, just look at it now...
Chairs and table, a taller size, one which I can work on. The chairs provide me a view that being shorter in this older age did not. (I am shrinking , you know).
I was looking through the railings before. Now I can see over them.
I love it!
Many happy days spent on my balcony ahead, I am sure.

Throwback Thursday
My husband sitting on his brother-in-law's cabin porch in 2004.
One of my favorite picture of him.
Aw! A lovely photo of hubby. I quite like your balcony!

A lovely photo of your hubby. And good job on the balcony! Looks great!
ReplyDeleteThe porch looks fabulous! And I loved seeing the pic of Dad.
ReplyDeleteIt's always pleasant to look out at a garden, puts my mind in a peaceful place. the picture of your husband is lovely. I stumbled across your blog and have spent a happy half an hour reading it..
ReplyDeleteYou made brilliant changes to create a place of sanctuary on your balcony, and that is a nice relaxed photo of your husband. Terra at terragarden
ReplyDeleteThat is a very good photo of your husband sitting on the porch. I like your balcony.
ReplyDeleteNice change on the balcony. We have the higher chairs on our porch too. Now the railing isn't in the way!!
ReplyDeleteI know exactly how you feel about your new furniture. We did the same when we lived in an apartment with a balcony. High table and high chairs so we could see what was out there. When we moved we passed the table and chairs to friends who had a balcony and they love having meals there.
ReplyDeleteIt looks very nice and comfortable. Looks like a great spot for morning coffee. That's a wonderful photo of your husband enjoying the cabin porch.
ReplyDeleteLovely balcony, small changes can make a big difference in how we enjoy life.
ReplyDeleteYes! I love the change! That is a peaceful picture of your husband! Enjoy your day dear friend.
ReplyDeleteGreat pics, Latane - both your balcony and your husband relaxing on the porch. You might want to hang some ferns or greenery around on the balcony (but that's me - and may not be the look/feel you're going for).
ReplyDeleteyour balcony looks so comfy and inviting, i can see why you are enjoying it!! that is a sweet picture of your husband, i'm happy someone snapped it so you can enjoy it now!!!
ReplyDeleteI even want to come sit on that balcony. I have a little table on the front porch. Before Roger's stroke, we used to sit out there and have breakfast a lot of mornings. I like that picture of your hubby.
ReplyDeleteEveryone needs their own special nook.......and it looks like you have created one perfect for you! Wishing you many happy days to enjoy it! That is a wonderful photo of your husband!
ReplyDeleteYour balcony space does look inviting, Latane, and I wish you many hapy hours of enjoyment there.
