There are so many details to look at and appreciate. And you're right - where else do you hear that music?? There is a beautiful one near me, and of course the historic Central Park carousel just south of me. It's so sad that these pieces of artwork are going away. You have some beautiful captures Carol. heyjudephotographyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06098165048025314116noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7068408751309289035.post-30235503616643709552015-02-16T20:40:02.082-08:002015-02-16T20:40:02.082-08:00This music and your images brought back so many me...This music and your images brought back so many memories, thank you. If only I could travel back fifty years and be a kid on the carousel again. :) Our town has saved its carousel, a small one but still fun for the little kids. I'm with you --- i like routine and predictability, no adrenalin rush for me, please. ginahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08748316725457763377noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7068408751309289035.post-8890050571186007062015-02-16T17:13:48.370-08:002015-02-16T17:13:48.370-08:00Crazy day and I am just now getting a chance to po...Crazy day and I am just now getting a chance to pop in here and tell you how much I enjoyed your post! And the photos bring back so many memories of not only my own childhood but my children's and grandchildren's as well. I agree with you and Dotti -- carousels are much more my cup of tea than roller coasters! Give me the safe and predictable any time. I love the beautiful individuality of each carousel. So sad that they are disappearing. terriporterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14333055591899961253noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7068408751309289035.post-22044731195895416112015-02-16T12:06:42.942-08:002015-02-16T12:06:42.942-08:00What a fun perspective!

The motion is mesmerizing. Lovely photos today, too!Dottihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00811399388989716265noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7068408751309289035.post-69140394070347281042015-02-16T06:44:52.309-08:002015-02-16T06:44:52.309-08:00Carol--Love this post!

I never really thought about carousels before but after reading your post I realized that I definitely agree with you that life gives us plenty of twists, turns and surprises and that I'm much happier enjoying the ordinary everyday and predictable moments of my life. We are getting a new carousel this year in Cincinnati and now I'm looking forward to it even more! I remember having fun picking out just the right horse to ride as a kid:)<br />kybarbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15379309037143657000noreply@blogger.com
