Solitude

My brother sent me this picture off his back deck in Pittsburgh.  I love the quiet peace he and his family get to enjoy even on a gray day!  

They love sunsets and time to reflect in solitude on their busy days so they purchased this home two years ago. This view is like a chameleon it transforms itself to reflect the different seasons.

Hi Dorie, That is beautiful.  I must admit, I love to see the land dressed in fresh white snow, and love the border your brother chose for this gorgeous photo.

Hi Mary,

He told us the light dusting would probably be gone by afternoon but he was enjoying the fresh fallen snow. We actually added the border and am sending him the blog to see our addition!

Karen,

He sold his home which was very niece but he longed for more property backing to a green belt or a golf course..he found it!

Looks like your brother is quite artistic.  I love how he set the picture up and used the snowflake background.  A gorgeous scene to look at from a warm and comfortable place.  Glad that I am not out in it.

Hi Toula,

I think it would make a great Christmas card! My brother said it would probably be gone in a day but not sure if that is the case. They are even saying we might get a dusting of snow tomorrow in Austin!!!
