Views from Friday
“To sit in the shade on a fine day and look upon verdure is the most perfect refreshment.” Jane Austen
Encarta Dictionary shows Verdure as the green colour associated with lush vegetation. I couldn’t stop myself from sneaking a little peek of the beach in there too.
Sky Watch Friday is the prefect way to end a week with hundreds of bloggers sharing their view of the horizon.
Hi, Mandy! What a pretty, shady path with a split rail fence, leading out to the water! :-)<br /><br />By the way, I've nominated you for a <a href="http://gaalcreative.blogspot.com/2009/07/lemonade-stand-award.html" rel="nofollow">Lemonade Stand Award</a> over on my blog! Hope you'll pop on over and pick it up!
… look upon verdure and the ocean, even better!
What a lovely path leading to the beach. There's skywatching activity to be had here too, how wonderful.<br /><br />Enjoy the weekend.
A bath to the beach – reminds me of somewhere we stayed in New Zealand more than eight years ago
What a lovely spot. I believe I would spend a lot of time there if I could.<br />Marnie

Ahhh … . that peek of the beach down the shady path is just perfect!<br />I can hear those waves breaking … .<br />Judith
that looks like a fine place to read a book and spend some quiet time.
Oh, I like that pathway. And the ocean! Very exciting for a person living on the High Plains of eastern New Mexico. Thank you for sharing.
Lovley composed and I would love to follow that path down to the beach..<br /><br />Beautiful!!!!<br /><br />Have a great weekend!<br />Anna
I love a good path, and that is one. Doubt it if I would ever get down to the beach.
Gorgeous photo! Love the combination of blue sky, the trees, the fence and the beach in the distance! Perfect! Have a lovely weekend!
I liked that little road leading into the picture – and down to the beach?
Very nice photo & lovely place. <br /><br />Thank you for the definition, I would have had to look up that one!<br /><br />Happy Sky Watch Friday & Have A Great Weekend!
Such a beautiful place, so peaceful.
That's lovely. I love pictures (both photos and paintings) that have a road or trail. It always makes me want to walk down it to see what there is a little farther on.
I like this bleu.<br />beautiful picture!<br />Great!<br />Gr.<br />P-TER
That's a wonderful shot. Looks like somewhere I'd like to be.
Would love to walk down that path and have a dip in the ocean.Where I sit it`s raining "cats and dogs"…(summer in Norway..)<br />Lovely photo!!
Jane Austen was right !!!<br /><br />Love that peek of the beach :-)<br /><br />Great shot!!
I would happily follow this path blindly with goo faith.
Verdure and verdant! Sort of like Vermont… Seriously, I like how the green varies with place.
That little path to the beach looks so inviting.
Beautiful! I like the path leading the eye right into this shot. Love Jane Austen too. Great skywatch shot.
Very serene photo. Looks like a great place for a leisurely walk.
I can hear the sea calling my name! Lovely!
A beautiful place to shoot.
Verdure comes from the Latin word viridis => verde (Spanish) vert (French) verde (Italian)<br />Beautiful Green from Old Eng. grene-similar to Ger grün<br /><br />A very, very beautiful picture~ sent me off on a daydream! <br /><br /> *A wonderful weekend to you*<br />~Maria

Path to the blue…<br />:)
Wow, i love the pathway and very peaceful looking scene.
Ahhh… the path to peace. I love your shots. Wonderful lines.
i looked up verdure as soon as i read the word too, & found somewhere 'vigorous greenery' the thought of sitting amongst vigorous greenery made me giggle 🙂 such a lovely quote & photo! oo & i saw the festival of postcards, i love postcards! though i dont have many…a couple spread out in journals. <br />hope youre having a lovely weekend!!!
