Proverbial Photo Op

As many of you know I love this view of this patch of my patio garden...I take this same photo several times a year. This is the late May version....and there will be others throughout the season and things get more filled in.

This garden is mostly textures and a variety of greens....very few blooms. 

But it doesn't need them. 

I have all my little garden tchotchkes out...

and they provide little pops of color here and there. And almost everything has a story...including the rocks.

I might share some of those stories again...but that's for another day.

Because today I'm sharing another proverbial photo op....the annual anniversary selfie. Paul and I celebrated out 44th anniversary today. We had a nice middle of the afternoon lunch out and a lovely drive around some local coastal neighborhoods that Paul discovered on his bike.

We topped it off with happy hour on the patio ....one of the places we most like to be. 

This is one of my favorite photo...just a quiet candid moment.

The best kind of photo op.

My sister Angie was our wedding photographer....she did an outstanding job!
