This week's prompt is:
TAILS - How would you change where you live?

Actually, I love where I live and wouldn't change much of anything ... other than to be RID of the 'stuph' (ie clutter) that's accumulated all over my home during the 29 years I've lived here. Of course, it would be nice if those who visited my little beach community and parked their cars on the street in my neighborhood ... didn't leave their 'trash' in the gutter and/or in my yard. With sunrise and sunsets like these ... dog beach within walking distance for Molly to run free & play with fur-friends ... and this for a front yard, why would I change anything else? For more views of my little corner of paradise, click here and here ... or not ;--)
