How lovely it is when you don't have to do all the gardening, but you get to enjoy all the benefits of seasonal flowers! Our apartment in Dresden, Germany had the nicest yard with fruit trees and flowers. Since it was located on a hillside, the yard sloped from the road above to the house, 38 steps down to the back door of the apartment. Our landlords, the Sobotta's, called it the "fitness apartment". It did get our heart rates up to carry groceries or luggage up or down all those steps!
I mention the hill because they had built a pretty three foot tall retaining wall of stone partway down. I loved the red and rust brown colors of the stone. This little cat loved it too, not for the color, but because the stones were warm in the morning, a perfect place for her daily face washing routine. With the sun shining on her fur, she was having the best time. I wanted to document this little moment of kitty joy.
