This is a view of the gazebo at the pond in Piedmont Park in Atlanta on a lazy sunshiny afternoon.

Wondering who these former worshipers were and what stories they would tell from days gone by?

Benches are wonderful places to sit and enjoy the scenery any time of year. During the Fall season one can sit and enjoy seeing the greens of summer chnage to yellow, and finally fall to create an ochre carpet on the forest floor.
My “Empty Bench Series” is a look at nature and people from the perspective of an empty bench. Sit down a moment and view the world from each bench.
This bench is near Mammoth Cave.

I love swings. They are like swinging benches. The old Southern houses had one or two on the front porch. Years ago I would drive to Greenville, Alabama and visit Jim Herbert, a nonagenarian, who was full of wisdom and stories. He had two swings on his front porch.
If it was warm we would sit in the two swings and talk. We swung back and forth, back and forth, back and forth and talked. Sometimes we talked ’til way past dark; then the crickets would join our conversation.
I miss Jim Herbert and his swings. He died but the memory of him and his swings lives on.
This swing is at Briscoe Park

On this bench the rising morning sun warms your back as the fog dissipates from the valley. Slowly breathe the cool fresh air. It looks like a bright day ahead. Carpe diem!

Empty Bench at Lenora Park
My “Empty Bench Series” is a look at nature and people from the perspective of an empty bench. Sit down a moment and view the world from each bench.
Today, I invite you to take a seat on any one of the three visible benches and enjoy early morning at Lenora Park. The fresh crisp feel of fog, the splashing sounds of the water fountain, the glow of sunrise, cheerful chirping of birds, and the peace of a moment of quiet meditation. “Ain’t God Good!”

Stockholm is a place with lots to see and do. On our walk from the palace area I saw this sunset over one of the many waterways in Stockholm. The golden glow around the buildings and on the water was attractive to me.

This rooster was on a sign at the entrance of a farm that I passed while my wife and I were driving through Alabama this past weekend. I thought it made a perfect silhouette against the setting sun.
