👍👍 Cute little outdoor area. Nice and quiet . Feels like sitting in your own personal backyard ... usually no one is here, I've seen one other person here awhile ago .. maybe I'm just lucky and hitting it at the right times ... it does look like it's someone's private land so maybe that's why there's...
