    Point & Shoot

    For my birthday last week I got a fantastic new camera that his been on my wish list for quite a while. A fab Olympus PEN. Isn’t it cute? I’m still learning the ropes with it and I think I will be for quite a while. Excuse me while my blog turns into my own personal photo album while I take up my new hobby. I’ve always been a closet photog. Please bear with me.

    Happy Friday! Time to take that slow ride to RelaxVille.

    Commuter 1

    My thoughts are with just everyone this week, casting a wide net,

    but especially those in Boston and Texas.

    Here’s to a much better and more peaceful week next week.

     

    All the best,

    Oh Deer!

    So I was washing dishes yesterday and looked up for a moment and check out what I saw out my kitchen window. A little visitor came and apparently she or he wanted to pose for pictures. So photogenic!

     

     

     

    Have a Happy Thursday!

    On Park

    Glorious day in this city this weekend so I took some quick pics to take the place of my words. I just love this view of Park Avenue always a favorite of mine, no matter how many times I see it it still always makes me smile. I do miss when this was the Pan Am building though.

    Bathing Beauty

    I had my first visitor to the birdbath the other day. Too bad the water froze over again overnight. I’ll be so happy when Spring springs for real up our way.

     

    Oh well I hope it’s warming up where you are.

    Snowbound

    Happy Friday!  I hope you all are doing great at the end of this snowy week for so many for us. Looking at the piled high drifts of snow and feeling the chill that now seems like it will ever go away I just can’t stop my mind from wandering to some warm far away isle.

    I hope you enjoy your day and have a few warm day dreams.

    Oh and please join me tomorrow for a little celebration!

    Best,

    First Fall

    Overnight we had our first snowfall of the season that brought out the plows and gave a covering on the holly tree outside my window. I’m thankful that it wasn’t enough to give a snow day and the twins are off to school today. Though I’m sure they would not say the same.

    Have a good one and stay warm where you are.

    Best,

    Kwana
