more re-posting.
hopefully i’ll get out soon to take some interesting shots. this was taken while i lived in Montreal back in 2003, it was late one night while gallery hopping. i don’t remember the exact temperature, but it was very, very cold and i could barely use my fingers to snap the photo!

I never saw a moor, I never saw the sea; Yet know I how the heather looks, And what a wave must be.
I never spoke with God, Nor visited in Heaven; Yet certain am I of the spot, As if a chart were given. Emily Dickinson

Very little is needed to make a happy life; it is all within yourself, in your way of thinking.

Few people know how to take a walk. The qualifications are endurance, plain clothes, old shoes, an eye for nature, good humor, vast curiosity, good speech, good silence and nothing too much. Ralph Waldo Emerson

I can post again!! Thank you Janet of the Xanga Team for your hard work and persistance at figuring out this glitch!

Riding in a taxi one afternoon between very tall buildings under a mauve and rosy sky; I began to bawl because I had everything I wanted and knew I would never be so happy again. Francis Scott Key Fitzgerald
