You can envision this staircase in your home. Yes or no?

Obviously, people living in a bungalow on a slab are out!

But if you had the option to make a staircase look this way, would you do it? Maybe it's a greater tripping hazard?

And even tumble back down, if you're not careful.

Pretty blue water, maybe some reeds, a fish or two, and an Osprey because they're my favorite bird.

At least since the age of three, when I had my first ER visit. I've broken too many bones and had too many stitches. So, as lovely as it is artistically, I will have to say no thank you, True.
