    The dog seems a bit unsure or resigned to another book stop, lol.

    I recently built a pretty large flowerbed in my backyard that flanks the left and back side of my fence. In the middle, I've placed a bench, much like the one in this painting. If it ever stops raining, I plan to sit there a read as the dogs run in the backyard. It's perfect for Spring!

    I love the greens in that painting. And the quote applies to all of us who read I think. :-)

    Such a peaceful scene. Mind you, I wouldn't be at peace with such a large dog next to me. At all!
