Moments Of Pure Pleasure You know what I mean

I was going to attempt posting something rivaling what Shalimar wrote, but I gotta say: Right after graduating from Army basic training at Ft Ord, in Dec. 1969, myself and a couple buddies were enjoying a burger and a beer at one of the base outdoor snackbars. Whoa, talk about pure pleasure!

....we were so busy during basic training, I don't really have much recollection of eating in the mess hall. Another moment of pure pleasure is having a cup or Army coffee(and a cigarette), trucked out to us while on the rifle ranges, in basic training.

A good friend of ours was a cook at Ft. Ord in 1967-68. You probably just missed him....
 

I guess pure pleasure for me revolves around food. I love oysters on the half shell with just a very slight glistening of ice on the top. Then a splash of lemon juice and just a bit of red sauce made with just the right amount of horseradish to give it bite. Pure ambrosia!! Also perfectly red ripe strawberries and super sweet watermelon. Mother Nature at her best.
 
Fresh crab meat dipped in hot butter and an ice cold brewski.

Moments out in nature, sunsets, starry nights, cool breezes, wind rustling autumn leaves.

Snuggling with my hubby and furkids at night.

Seeing wildlife in their natural surroundings.
 

Discovering that the person you're in love with is in love with you too. Helping an injured wild animal regain its health and return to its way of life.
