This was an introductory assignement for my AEDU 301 online class. Thought I would share with you!
My favorite windows are in our dining room. Upon entering the room in the morning, the distinct aroma of freshly brewed coffee with a steaming cup sitting on the table engulfs me. As I sit at the table enjoying my coffee and reading my latest book, magazine or newspaper, Daisy is usually at my feet looking up at me with those adorable brown puppy eyes. Peering out the windows to the south, I see our lake and neighbor’s houses. Just beyond is farmland with bountiful corn turning brown as it starts drying out for the season and, occasionally, cows grazing nearby. Through the windows to the west is again our lake and beach where the kids have so much fun playing in the water and digging in the sand. Summers are filled with friends laughing, splashing and having a good time. To the north is the Platte River with overgrown cottonwood trees, flowing water, sandbars, and all sorts of wildlife roaming by. This fall we have added a flock of 18 turkeys to the neighborhood that visit us on a daily basis but we have also had beavers, raccoons, deer and even a bobcat! We are truly blessed to be able to enjoy the view from our favorite windows.
