Passeio de cidade

Let's go for a walk!

Join me in a city tour to wash the blues away.

"Always find time for the things that make you feel happy to be alive."



Winter can be an overwhelming and aggressive spirit that either chills your vulnerable body and soul, or invigorates your wildest imagination. It seldom caresses you like a midsummer's day and can easily bring you to your knees upon an icy path.

Yet the sheer erosion of a moonlit winter landscape has the power to lift your spirits, symbolizing a most pleasurable experience like no other season.



Absolute zero
yet sunny.

Winter things.



candy canes
chilling
eggnog 
brisk winds
earmuffs
gingerbread
gray misty cold day
strong wind blowing
snowmen



Is that sculpture reaching for the sky?


Hot Chocolate
ice skating
icicles
blizzards!


Artfully so!



You better let somebody love you before it's too late.
The Eagles




Do you get the feeling this a ghost town?
Where are all the people?




Those things that please you
invite them in.
(this blizzard will soon pass)
it seems spring is waiting just around the corner.





I spy a person in the distance.

Don't your feet get cold in the wintertime?


And
in the end, 
the love you take is equal 
to the love you make.
The Beatles


Love more
hate less.
wait!
don't hate period

Thanks for stopping by
Take good care of you.

Love the tropical paintings of the sea turtle, etc!

And... all of these things:

candy canes
chilling
eggnog
brisk winds
earmuffs
gingerbread
gray misty cold day
strong wind blowing
snowmen

Good morning, Karen! You are an inspiration! Love the photos and quotes. I agree, NO hate! I hope you have many things that please you! It is still winter here right now it is 24° going up to a warm 40°. Winter is hanging in there. Have a happy day!

We are having another snow dump but it is light fluffy stuff so easy to shovel and pretty to look at! I'm ready for spring though!

Doesn't zero degrees mean even zombies freeze?
