For the Sunday Challenge. A place you love. This is the fire pit and view from the recreation property my wife's family owns at Pigeon Lake, Alberta. In the foreground is my chair where I spend most of my time reading, waiting for the birds to arrive in the late afternoon and in this case, get the wieners out and have a roast. I would have had a photo of Corsica or Florence but I could not arrange a trip there within the week.
