View from our backyard

Every morning as I do my yard work of sweeping leaves, watering the plants, and feeding our pets, I occasionally look up to enjoy our usual backyard view. Life may seem so simple and plain where we live. But I know I wouldn't trade this for life in a city full of noise and pollution. I was born and raised in the capital. I received my education there too. Somehow despite the opportunities city life may bring, I still find myself drawn to provincial life. That is why I chose to move here 15 years ago. No regrets. I just love slow living and waking up to beautiful birdsong.

We moved from city to country about ten years ago and love it. I know exactly how you feel! Love the beautiful nature all around us.

Provincial life reminds me of Belle in Beauty and the Beast.

It would be lovely if you post the view you are seeing in this post so we can see what you are describing in here.

@almostoveryou I think your picture size is very large. You should lower it down a bit.

@rsa101 I've used the same size for every pic that I've previously posted.

Life in the province is good. You know almost all the people and fresh food and fresh air are there.
