This, that and the other thing 
oh i really like this, you even caught a member of the crow family on one of the trees!
It’s a grackle and I believe it was guarding a nest in that tree. They’re so loud and aggressive but while I was sitting there, a mourning dove ran a grackle off, so you never know.
ah grackles, we don’t get them here so didn’t even occur to me! ooh our collared doves have been seeing off crows
I’ve seen small birds drive off a hawk so who knows.
Impressive! 🤗💕
Not sure whether you mean trees or press or but I think both are. 😉❤️. And it’s a wonderful place to sit with a coffee or tea or food and just relax.
This old stone mill is special! well capture, Janet.
Thanks, Amy.
I love this view, Janet! Where was the photo taken? 🌞
Queen Creek Olive Mill in Queen Creek. It’s a lovely place to shop and to sit outside.
I’ll have to check it out! 🌞
And if you get down here, you’d better let me know! They have olive oils there, of course, and vinegars but it’s tough to beat the balsamic I got in Flag!!
Of course! Yup, that balsamic is so good, the last time I went to stock up, I got 1/2 a gallon! 🤣
The “neatness” of the cypress trees always catches my attention; they don’t seem to need any pruning to maintain their cigar shape without any leaves or branches out of place.
Was this the kind of mill where the donkey would be trudging around in a circle all day to keep the boulders rolling over the grain?
I like the look of the trees, too. As for the mill, I’m not sure but this was an olive mill, so perhaps no donkey.
I have never seen an olive mill. looks interesting.
It’s great place to relax as well as to stock up on all sort of goodies, olive oil-related or not.

This makes me wish I were in Italy or Greece! 😀
I know. Those trees are iconically Italy to me.
Me too! 😀
Wonderful view 🙂
Thanks, Hammad. I love to get a coffee and sit outside with that view or others like it and just relax.
