Sunshine on my shoulders - HNT #21

I love my balcony. It's pretty much the only good thing about my apartment. It's over 200 square feet, south facing and higher than most of the buildings in the neighbourhood, so I have a great view...well, it would be great if there were anything around here to see.



It's where I've been spending most of my time the last while. Any chance I get I head out to the balcony witha bookand a cold drink to catch some sun. The idea started because I have ridiculous tan lines from my trip to California and have to have them evened out before July 8th for my brother's wedding. But now the tan lines are sort of an after thought. I have just really been enjoying the sun.

And this afternoon was no exception. As soon as the rain clouds started to blow over, I grabed my book and headed outside.





Be sure to go and check out those under cover HNT participants at the-otherhnt
and go see Os if you're still in the dark about what HNT is...HNT_1
Oh, and if anyone is interested, this is the book I'm reading right now.

(1) I'm assuming this is a reference to the John Denver song, right?

(2) You might be unimpressed with the view, but the photograph is nice.

(3) I don't have to read a book on how to be stupid. I consider myself kind of a natural.

That's one of the things I miss about living on the ground level, the view. I used to love living high up and looking out over the city. Happy HNT! :)

Ah!
And you've been getting some gorgeous weather in Alberta too! Lucky!
We had rain rain rain out east - things are finally getting sunny and hot again and now I REALLY wish I had a balcony for my apartment too >.<
I'm making my roommate keep an eye out for anyone who looks like they are moving out above us so that we can snatch up a place with a balcony. ^_~

ANYWAY
Happy HNT you lucky girl!

I love sitting out in the sun, doing my best cat impression!! Would be better if I could just lay out there nude though!
