Welcome

Inspiration for this blog came from my cousin Roy. His daily reflections of the events in his life have been thoughtful and interesting. Family, friends, colleagues are welcome to read my blog.

LIFE IS LIKE A GAZEBO!

Gazebos are one of those backyard or park or historical building items on the lawn. Usually
 an octagon shape, it is multi sided. Air flows through but it could be shelter from the rain.
Nice spot for wedding or family or special occasion photographs. Usually made of wood, it stands the elements well. Seen as pretty and not always the most functional piece to have, it adds character to the spot wherever it is located. It can be painted white like the one at the retirement home near me. They hang pots of flowers on their gazebo. A nice one by the lake at Niagara on the Lake-if angled correctly a photo can have the lake in the background. It just sits there but attracts attention from the visitor. If lucky to have one in your yard, it can be a quiet place to read a book with your favourite drink to sip. Entertain guests or play with the grandchildren. It can be a retreat from the world or invite the world to join you. Do you have a gazebo? If you don't, would you want one? If so, what would you do with it?
