Ray P Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 (edited) As the day was comming to an end I was sitting on my back deck having a beer and enjoying the sounds of nature All the birds were flying around and singing, My chickens were clucking, the roosters were crowing and my peacocks were honking. The ducks were quacking and splashing around in the pond and Corky and Cricket were singing along with Willie and Little One my cockatiels. My two dachshounds were playing in the yard. My neighbors donkeys were hee-hawing and their horse was in on it to. It was then I realized they werw celebrating the end of a beautifil day each with their own song. As I listen to their songs of celebration I dozed off and when I woken it was dark. The chickens were in their coup, My peacocks were on their roost and the birds flew back to their nest. Corky, Cricket, Willie and Little One had been covered by my son. My neighbors donkeys and horse went back to their barn. there was a cool night breeze after the sun went down. It was bliss. Than I had a thought. I better get inside before the mosquitoes eat me alive. I hope you had as good a day as I had Ray Edited July 17, 2012 by Ray P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TWIX Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 That's so peaceful! It's summer here, humidity and temperature are killers. We won't enjoy the outdoors until the end of November. Enjoy it while you can Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
judygram Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 I sometimes wish I had a porch especially a screened in one to sit outside and enjoy the sounds but it is so hot this summer that it feels better inside but you enjoy it Ray. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JeffNOK Posted July 18, 2012 Share Posted July 18, 2012 July in Oklahoma is brutal. It will be 107 this weekend. I was born and spent my early years in Ohio and remember when a heat wave was anything over 90. Enjoy the summer. I'll be saving my beer on the porch for October.

Sarasota Posted July 24, 2012 Share Posted July 24, 2012 Oh my gosh. Where do you live, and when can I move in? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
katana600 Posted July 24, 2012 Share Posted July 24, 2012 You have a way of making the best of an evening. I am going to have to try having a beer, that will make me more imaginative and I won't have to sit outside to hear wonderful things. LOL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
