I'll be spending my day next to our pool too. Gorgeous sitting area! Your dog looks very happy w/his surrounds.

That is a very inviting place to spend a summer evening.

Your big black dog looks great sitting on that chair.

Linda, your King Dog sure does look like the master of the house.........relaxing in the cool by the pool...."somebody bring me a bone!"
Loved the grapefruit painting, and the decor...is the pool finished now?

Sadie wants to know if she can come over to play (or just lounge on the gorgeous furniture!).

Love your blue and white setting - better than Marilyn's, I reckon! Here in tropical North Queensland, Australia, it's winter and we enjoy sitting outside too. In summer, it's too hot to do that, we wallow in the air-conditioning!

Cobalt Violet said...

Love your home! ... the blue and white and dark wood ... that painting. Fabulous.

I am hanging at my parents' in Ojai recovering from abdominal surgery (which is why I have been pretty m.i.a. on the blogging front lately.) I will get into all that later but I decided to make my rounds on Percocet and see how that goes. Pretty interesting, but I will be happier to soon be pain and medication free!

Anyhow, great to be back visiting your blog and hope you are enjoying the summer!
