Nature Needs More Comfy Places to Sit
During my snow day wanderings, I came upon this little convenience (and, as Burning Spear said: "We want more convenience. More endorsed checks. We want more convenience."). I laughed and then photographed.
And, then, of course, I sat. Here's the view.
I tell you, life would be so much more charming if people would just occasionally drag soft, fashionable furniture to great views and leave it there for all to enjoy. I mean, an occasional sofa in the front yard isn't going to cut it--a view of your El Camino on cinderblocks isn't what I'm talking about. I'm talking about a king-sized, cushy bed by the lake, or a loveseat on the edge of a canyon.
Thumbs up for scenic furniture disposal tactics! Ask not what your country can do for you...

8 Back at me:
I remember on some random tv show I saw a bed by a lake. I thought how romantic that would be. Until it rains.
Wouldn't that be fabulous. That chair is hysterical.
I knew that the McMenamin Brothers had a good thing putting couches and love seats in their restaurants and movie theaters.
Oh wait, not that kind of view.

You bring the couch, I'll bring the dresser, in which we'll store umbrellas, scotch, and a fine assortment of chocolates. Oh, and we may need a squirt bottle of bleach water to scare off varmits....
"Ask not...", indeed!
You scored, mang!
To Susie's comment, did I ever tell you about my friends who rafted the Grand Canyon? They had to sport portable potties for the entire 2 weeks. You are not permitted to soil the soil. How's that for scenic placement?
To Emma... bad, bad girl!
To Mona... Scotch? Did I hear someone say... Scotch?

Brilliant! I was almost tempted to ask if I could sit on your lap... But that may have come across differently than I meant it, so best I just keep my sweet, innocent trap shut.
Nice view.
Nice view.
HEY!! I see you! Nice profile pic.
I think this is fabulous! Worth the beauty view...I stare out at a main street in a small town in Canada! We're still waiting for major snow so we can go skiing and look at views like yours!

Maggie: "until it rains" is how I expect every delight to be judged here in the Great Northwest.
Suoo: Well, I didn't sit on it with no pants on. And, the toilet thing gives me an idea for a new travel coffee table book. Jeremiah's Travelling Toilet. I go exotic places, and be photographed sitting on the toilet! Insane? Yes!
Emma: It's on the If You Ever Meet Jeremiah Tour, so, yeah.
Mona: It's a date.
TG: Carry a toilet for two weeks? I want to make a joke about "roughage-ing it" but I can't bring myself to it...
Sarah: Well, I could put on some leather pants and then have a leather lap. How about that?
Suozie: He's filling in for me while I slack horribly...
MOI: Welcome! What's cool about this view is that it is actually in a very populous neighborhood, but the placer of the chair angled it just so, so you don't see the piles of houses, just the pile of trees.
