Description from Granny Nancy: This view isn't true because I have a clear view of the parking lot but I did add the green pickup. We do have many trees and shrubs so I went for green. The bird is for all the chirping I hear out there. And the cabochon is symbolic for other apartment buildings I can see a little.

dolllady aka Pam says:Nancy, your view is the blessings from God! We do have some trees that have green leaves. Some may have lavender flowers and others will have oranges and tangerines. A variety of birds and squirrels will be visiting. Thank you Nancy for sharing your visual blessings.

Kimberlywilliams60 says:Lovely pick GN …..here sadly it’s been so dry all We see is black and char ….there are wildfires burning where it should be green ….the cold temps coming in have helped to die the fires down and is a blessing the firemen are so tired
