Now, if only my view to the holiday was as unobstructed!

This was the view last year. Yep, that’s right, the neighbors have finally taken down their dead tree. We are going to enjoy the unobstructed view for as long as possible–since the two plots of land behind that tree are now for sale. (I’m hoping it’s a VERY long time, since they’re asking a king’s ransom for .05 acre lots!) Which is why, on this very sunny day in December, we are taking a break from our all our tasks and  bundling up for mochas on the deck.

And no, no photos of the steamy goodness. I drank it to keep me warm. But you can enjoy the view and pretend. M’kay?
