“A railroad station? That was sort of a primitive airport, only you didn’t have to take a cab 20 miles out of town to reach it.” Russell Baker

Public transit, oh what joy!
But, before you shout ahoy
Read this story of ploy…
The Daily Post Weekly Photo Challenge: Optimistic
This week show us something you’re optimistic about, or perhaps a talisman that helps you stay positive and hopeful, regardless of what life (and the weather!) throws your way.
“The biggest emotion in creation is the bridge to optimism” Brian May
Optimistic (The Daily Post) Four
Winter?
So what!
I don’t care!
I am feeling
Quite optimistic
Riding my bike
Sitting on a bench
So what if it snows
It’s almost June!

Sunshine on a winter’s day
The nature’s showing a halo
The cold and snow to fade
And soon, it will be May

“We’re on a highway to Hell-sinki!”
A Trip To Helsinki City (Sightseeing and Walkabout) One
Helsinki, the little town in the middle of nowhere, called Finland. You may have heard of it?
The place where all Finns dress in jumpsuits all year long and polar bears roam the streets. Penguins and other arctic dwellers are as familiar house pets as a cat or a dog. These Finns talk in funny accents and drink lots of coffee. They drive like nuts, because rally is in their bloods. They sit naked in the middle of freezing cold in a lake or a pond. In return, they have this dark small lodge, called the Sauna, where they sit naked in a hundred degree heat. Then later in July, when the sun comes out once a year, the complain about a twenty degree heat.
Yes, you know who they are! Welcome to Hell-sinki!

“In a window seat on a plane to nowhere”
Seat by the Seashore (Seat Sunday 2016-01-24) Three
The sun’s shadows of tall
Cast on to the stone wall
Enjoying a moment of silence
In an instant quite timeless
Loosing all defiance
On this frozen
Snow covered bench

“In a window seat on a plane to nowhere”
Seat by the Seashore (Seat Sunday 2016-01-24) Two
The sun is shining
The birds are flying
The air is frozen
This spot I’ve chosen
A seat in the sun

Seat by the Seashore (Seat Sunday 2016-01-24) One
The sea is frozen
So don’t dip your toes in
Unless you are a dare devil
Meanwhile,
Enjoy the scenery
On a bench near the sea

A response to Sylvain’s challenge theme of Snow
“The very fact of snow is such an amazement.” Roger Ebert
Snow and then some! (Part Four)
One step, two step
Feeling the shake
No worries, no hurries
Just walk a mile
It will be quite a while
Before the ice breaks

Snow and then some! (Part Three)
In front of me
A most gorgeous display
Sunshine, on a snowy day
The waters frozen
Feeling brazen
A thought quite attempting
The opportunity presenting
A walkabout upon the lake
