My bench of the week

I saw a lot of this very nondecript wooden bench
whilst we were in Bowen during the winter
Its up on the foreshore of Queens Beach
Beneath the huge Casuarina Trees near the Lifesaving Club

A great spot to sit and watch the world go by 
Always in the shade
No chance of being burnt to a cinder

to really enjoy these photos - click and enlarge 
This couple obviously thought the same way I did
A perfect place for looking out to sea
For enjoying the peace and quiet
For watching the waves roll in
And having a cup of tea 
accompained by some rather nice looking cake
Theres a car park near the LS Club
so they'd taken a bag of goodies with them for a midmorning snack 
They agreed to photos as long as they couldn't be identified

Is there a special place close to home you enjoy ?

  1. Nice setting! Looks very peaceful. We don't go out like that anymore, wish we did, there are parks along the river.

  3. A small postage-stamp park was built smack dab in the middle of downtown where there used to be a building that was torn down. Grass, trees, flowers and a lovely gazebo was built with a wire frame on the top, which a huge wisteria has entwined itself. Benches are around the inside and it is very peaceful sitting there
