My turquoise bench

There was an old bench next to the yurt I live in I liked because it looked very weathered and like it had jumped right out of one of those old western movies I used to see as a child. Now it is painted in bright turquoise that contrasts nicely with the cinnamon brown of the desert and the dark green of the juniper next to it. I can see it from the road to our driveway and it is like a landmark telling me "Home".

My turquoise bench (it feels MY now, for some reason :) is a great place to sit at the end of the day and admire the beautiful sunsets over the hills in the distance or simply relax in the calm of the desert at dusk. I love it!
