the doors of christmas day...

we went out to walk the pup in the snow and i grabbed my camera on the way. i have been noticing the doors in my boyfriend's neighborhood. here are a few that caught my eye that day.

my happy place...

the title says it all.

stranger in the park...

i was out shooting a location when i stumbled upon this woman and little girl...

first flurries...

we had our first snow flurries here in the lou on thanksgiving. as soon as i see flakes, i think of hiking in the snow and sledding art hill in forest park.

art hill is a wondrous place. in the blanket of silence a good snow offers, there is nothing better than to hear the laughter of young and old alike as they sled on everything from cardboard to sassy snow boards.

those first snow flakes have me looking to the skies... will i actually sled the hill this year? i never have, and being born and raised in the lou, it's a crime that i've not. maybe this year.

skies of far away places...

i have many photos from prince edward island and like little hidden treasures, i keep stumbling upon them in my files.

i love to travel, so the world around me is always changing. in contrast, i have my home base, my hub, my zen zone. i cherish my roots.

but, a large part of my heart is out there... out where the skies make heaven seem only a whisper away.
