New Year's Eve

Nothing like staying in on New Year's Eve -- especially in a house this cute!

Archway

I love the archway of this door on the Yale campus in New Haven.

Museum Day

A cold rainy winter day is always a good day to visit a museum!

Yale

A visit to the Yale campus feels like a trip to England.

Spring-like

Beautiful 60 degree sunny days in winter make us dream of spring.

Winter White

Lovely winter white hydrangeas on the day after Christmas -- so serene.

Can't get enough of the beautiful window displays at Bergdorf Goodman -- I just love the reflection in the windows as well.

Christmas Colors

A small café in Manhattan all decked out in Christmas colors -- looks so inviting!

Cute Pup

The things you see in Brooklyn ----- a cute pup inspecting a silver pumpkin.

A lovely deer takes a rest on a chilly afternoon.

Beauty

A peaceful scene in the country - away from shopping malls!

Christmas Spirit

Getting in the spirit of Christmas around here!  Another window at Bergdorfs.

Winter Flowers

Such beautiful colors -- starting to prepare for holiday guests.

Snow overnight and then a cloudy rainy Saturday -- nice day to listen to Christmas music on the radio!

Christmas Tree Shopping

Finally got around to going Christmas tree shopping today -- despite the freezing cold!

Birds

Birds on a wire -- so cute -- they don't seem to mind the cold weather.

Tree Trimming

It's tree trimming time -- this lovely tree looks as if it's been frosted by snow.

Decor

I wish people would slow down and relax and just take in the beauty of the holiday season.  Too many people get too wound up this time of year!

A Peek

Just a peek into an old-time Christmas scene.

Friendly Horse

A very friendly horse stands at the fence near the road  --  greeting those passing by!

Clear And Cold

It was a beautiful day today  --------  but very cold!

Reflection

A reflection of The Empire State Building ---- glowing in blue.

Lights

I love these holiday lights in Bryant Park -- like shining snowballs.

Bust Streets

A New York scene a few weeks before Christmas.  It's all hustle and bustle from here on in!

The Big Tree

Kind of a grey day today - but the Christmas tree at Rockefeller Center certainly brightened things up!

Bergdorf Goodman

Usually the only Christmas windows I go to see  --  Bergdorf Goodman never disappoints!

Such A Treat

What a wonderful treat it was to watch a performance of Prairie Home Companion - the radio show!  Special guests Marcus Mumford, Corinne Bailey Rae and Trevor Noah joined Chris Thile on stage for an entertaining evening.

Moon

Tonight in New York -- the moon was out.

Pumpkins On The Porch

My pumpkins are still hanging on -- almost time to replace them with Christmas décor.

Fish

Dreaming of relaxing worry-free and warm days.
