Nothing like a relaxing swing in the hammock! I learned a very long time ago to tie a rope to a tree and just pull and release. It's a nice easy swing like rockin' a baby in a cradle. Ahh! Nice breeze. Lovely bird songs. Peace and quiet. My sanctuary. No shoes, no shirt, no problem! LOL! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-01jhW_Yzhs
love the feeling in this, lovely pov, great B&W!

It's about time you take time out to relax and kick back!! Rest those weary bones and hands!! And put your "shirt" on before some weirdo comes along. :) Love your pov and the lighting and shade. A perfect spot for this. Are you sleeping yet?!!!

@karenann LMBO at your comment about my shirt!!! Ha ha! Too funny, girl! Believe me, not a soul would notice! LOL! I only got in the hammock to get the pic, then had to get out and get to other chores. Shoot! The only relaxation I get is right here these days. No, still not sleeping so good. I think it's just old age. If I can get 5 hours of uninterrupted sleep in one night, I think I've been blessed. I hope you're well! Thank you for your kind and thoughtful comments, Karen! I always enjoy reading them and appreciate your visit. Hugs!!!
