The prompt for today's ToT is "10 Places You Hang Out". I got to thinking that I am kinda boring. I don't go out all that much and am most happy hanging out at home.
My favorite places at home are
1. My deck. Mostly in the summer and Fall. I still like to hang out there as it's getting dark and capture some sunset pictures.
2. The backyard near the stream. I love that you can really hear it flowing this time of year. But you better make a fire in the pit because the winds are picking up and it's getting chilly.
3. Near the wood stove. With my knitting.
4. My bathroom. Now you must know that I have the tiniest bathroom known to man, and there is only one of them in the house. But sometimes I retreat in there with my iPad just to gather my thoughts. And be left alone.
5. The kitchen. This is where everyone congregates - right around the center island. Which is where most of the cooking is happening.
When I do venture out
6. The library. We have such a nice room with a fireplace and it's nice to relax and relieve stress.
7. Work. After hours when most of the employees have left a few of us hang out and talk and joke about our day. Sometimes I hang out here alone. I feel closest to my brother here in this place that he used to practically live at. And I don't feel alone at all.
8. Panera Bread. I go there with knitting friends or even by myself. I find it a relaxing spot and wish there was one a little closer to me.
9. Barnes and Noble. I love browsing the magazine section with a cup of coffee.
10. Pub 99. Our favorite family restaurant. The atmosphere is good, the food is consistent and it feels like a second home after all these years.

With views like that I can see why your deck is a great hangout. Number 7 sounds like heaven to me, and I'm glad that you have a place where you can feel close to your brother. A truly lovely list!
Number 3 sounds just perfect!
I like how you divided your list into places at home and out. Agree that #3 sounds perfect as does #1.
we hang out at our local panera, too!!! :)
Home is the best place, but it's nice to have local places where it feels like home!
Hooray for the library and the 99!
Fun to read everyone's hang out lists!
I love that you included your bathroom! LOL I included my laundry room for pretty much that same reason. I know I won't be bothered in there, especially if there is laundry to be folded ;-)
I am a homebody all the way! Well, unless I'm at the beach and then I'm a beach bum.
I envy your nearby Barnes & Noble. It's one of my favorite places to go but it's 3.5 hours away from home for me.
I knew you would list your deck :) I wish I had a b & n near me!!
