The Four Seasons

It has been one of those rainy, gloomy days in my part of the world today. I was sitting at the table making a list of errands I need to run and other stops I need to make when the rain stops. I thought about my view from inside the sliding glass door on a rainy day.
Today - Fall 2010

Summer


Spring - 2010 (shortly before it started to rain)

Winter - 2010 (rain turns to snow)

That is a view of the "Four Seasons" outside my back door.
I am linking with Susan @ "Outdoor Wednesday" http://asoutherndaydreamer.blogspot.com/
Well the rain did not stop, but I got out and did some "puddle jumping" anyway - did not run all of the errands, but did put a dent in the list.
Hope everyone is having a great week.

    How different yet familiar the brick wall looks in the different seasons. It is a special spot.

    I love your courtyard Glenda. It's beautiful in all four seasons.

    No rain here and we could use some. Turned off chilly and is to be even more chilly later this week.

    That was so cool and it looks like a lovely little spot to sit when the snows not so deep.

    You have a gorgeous backyard Glenda!
    Our leaves have long dropped and it's a bit empty looking right now.
    We have been in the 50's so at least it hasn't been too cold yet!
    Hugs,
    Cindy

    Glenda, we are having rainy weather, but we need it so much that I can't complain.

    Your patio view is so pretty, and I can see why you love to sit there and gaze through the window. Love all the brickwork and the pretty garden stautes and fountain. It's lovely in all seasons.

    XO,

    Sheila :-)

    Your view is lovely! I like the idea of taing photos of the same spot through the seasons. We are lucky to be able to experience them all!

    Glenda, you have a lovely patio all year round. Thanks for your comments, I would love to blog alot more than I do, I do realize that most of my favorite bloggers do not work full-time like I do. So I will have to live vicariously through them. Thanks for visiting. Marla

    Terrific idea to look at the same view through the seasons and see what changes take place. Wonderful.

    Well were getting the much needed rain here today - still wearing sandals though - don't want to put on those socks.

    Love your "seasons of change."

    Interesting how a change of season can make an area look so different each time.

    Glenda, I love your courtyard, and it looks beautiful in every season. of course, looking at the snow from inside is a lot prettier than being out in it. Your header mosaic is so pretty. laurie

    Your little "secret garden" is so nice. I hope that snow you pictured stays far away from here, at least for a good while.
