A French-Inspired Garden and Home by Judith Stringham

Vintage Park Bench

Friday, April 12, 2013

Benches line the parks and boulevards of
Paris.


This vintage park bench sits in my backyard under a pear tree.


Sitting on the bench transports me to Paris.



Remembering beautiful historic parks tucked into the neighborhoods...


Parisians reading a book or newspaper,


Meeting friends for a leisurely conversation... 


My backyard becomes my own private Parisian park filled 
with birdsongs,
with leaves rustling in the breeze,


and with memories of a time and place faraway.
