I thought I’d share the view, two ways, from my bedroom window. Pictures were taken with my iPhone. My small, wonderful home that I named Hastings Cottage and decorated in a rustic, beach-shack style, brings me joy each day. I feel so fortunate to live here. Note, the canvas drapes on the right block the hot, oftentimes fiercely hot, afternoon sun and provide nice privacy.
You’ll notice the first photo features lighting on the actual porch, while the other has the lighting focused on the spectacular pampas grass I planted just two or three years ago. The grass is currently in all its glory, showing off to anyone going by, particularly when the morning sun shines on its fluffy plumes. ~SueBee
