My Backyard Resting Place



This is where I go to relax, and rest. Where do you think this special place is? If you said it was in back of my house, you would be correct. This is my little wooden deck, on the back of my house here in Florida. We have an umbrella above a glass table. It rains so much in this region, and when it is not raining the sun is very bright, and hot. The umbrella gives us some comfort from the rain and the sun. You will notice a barbeque grill on the deck opposite the umbrella and table. We use the gas grill to cook our meat, potatoes, and other food items. We spend more time sitting out here in the spring or fall, since summers are long and hot, and winters can be surprisingly cold. We especially like seeing and listening to the many species of birds that are in abundance in my backyard, and in the region as a whole. Birds constantly come and go here. I love birds, and hearing them in my backyard resting place, makes me feel happy and comfortable.

Questions:

1.  What do you think is missing from this backyard display?
2.  What would you add to the deck, and yard?
3.  Where do you go to rest and relax when you are not working?
4.  Who do you like to rest and relax with? 
5.  What do your friends do to have fun after working hard?
6.  What would you like to have in your backyard?
7.  Where can you go to find birds?
8.  What kinds of birds are in your neighborhood?
