Oh Happy Wandering in Hastings

 Posting to City Daily Photo with my Hastings, Minnesota wander.


"It is sweet to let the mind unbend on occasion."

(it's also key to survival)

Well, hello friend, welcome to Hastings Art Center.


Your smile makes the world a little brighter.





Let's meet at the Froth and Cork Coffeehouse!


Each day is rich with gifts, including everything from your morning coffee, or tea to your friends, family, co-workers and animals. Appreciate everything. 


Be sure to read the notes written in chalk on the sidewalk outside the coffeehouse.



Furnish your thoughts uniquely.




In case you didn't know I find joy, comfort, silliness, and even gratitude from the Gnomes in my life. 
There are lots of different kinds of happiness, which varies between us all, but the comfort we feel in whatever contentment works for us, keep it close at hand.






Delight in the beauty that everywhere surrounds you.
Charles Boner





"May you live every day of your life."
Jonathan Swift quotes





A great place to eat lunch or just listen to the waterfall. 







Isn't it amazing how flowers can grow pretty much anywhere?


Having fun is simply holding on to the joy of each day.








Rocks so inspiring and motivational. 

The sign reads, take one for inspiration, share one for motivation or leave one to help our garden grow. 




Honestly, all ages are welcome for Storytime in the Park.


"A man - (woman, child, etc.) doesn't live by read alone. He (she) needs buttering up once in a while."

Robert H. Henry


Thanks for stopping in and brightening my day.

Take good care of you.

When I see a gnome I think of you.
