It is WONDERFUL to be able to visualize it all from such a great overview, and then see that GORGEOUS Pink Tree, again and The Exquisite Yellow Tree,too. You live in such a very Beautiful area, dear Sonia.

What a beautiful place to have a home!
ReplyDeleteSonia, I am retired now, but I was a cartographer for decades. I so enjoy maps and aerial photography and imagery, so I really enjoyed this post showing the lay of the land.
It looks like you have a rain forest not far from where you live - is it? a tropical forrest? Such an interesting area and neighbors at a distance. How great is that!!! The land is flat - are you able to walk long distances or is properties blocked off by fences. All so curious for me
ReplyDeleteand the water feature in your yard....is it a swimming pool, hot tub or fountain?
Sonia, this is wonderful! So much fun to have the aerial shots. Your home looks like quite an estate.
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful place to live. But I am wondering.... who cuts the grass? :-)
ReplyDeleteYou live on a beautiful piece of property with a terrific environment.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Sonia, for the link to these gorgeous pictures. You are very fortunate to live in such a paradise! It's really quite an incredible place and your homes looks so warm and comfortable.
ReplyDeleteAnd what a great place to enjoy the water!
