Hello!  Come on out on the deck and enjoy the privacy. The rocking chairs are waiting. Steam is rising from the hot tub into the cool morning air. The view into the woods is quiet and serene. Bring a book out and sit for a while!

These are times to contemplate what is good in life, what is right in the world. If you’re lucky enough to be sitting here enjoying the morning with your family or friends, you’re lucky enough!

Later on you might come over and visit me to see the complete display of Smoky Mountains Photography at the William Britten Gallery in Gatlinburg, TN.
