I didn't crop this picture, I was closer to the scene. The shot is from last summer at Ludwig Mill.

Thanks for the comments, friends.

I agree with Mich but the rocking chair may shake up the beer! Nice shot Jimbob, it makes me long for warm weather.

I see you are still "off your rocker Jimbob." I can almost hear it creaking from the wind. I like the thoughts this one brings to mind.

I agree with Kim, it does look like a great place to just sit, place checkers, sip some lemonade, and watch as the day parades by you.

Peaceful way to spend the day rocking away on the old porch. I see a barrel but no checkers or board guess they are in inside. Very lovely scene of days gone by Jimbob!

They have spots like this on the beach here, think it's time for me to go there..anyone want to volunteer to go?Nice photo my friend, very nice. Verena

Use the chair Jim. Post a self-portrait :)
Very nice shot. Although I have would preferred the elements surrounding the chairs to be in a bit more focus, I like the composition a lot.

No thanks Jimbob, because both of the distance and having no time to relax that way.
Very fine image though, my friend.
