Heart of the City by Steenz for January 05, 2020

Reality shows never have heart warming moments.

It’s true! When conditions are right you can hear the microscopic tink-tink-tink of individual snow crystals landing. (I suspect I also commented about that in 2008 when this strip first appeared.)

Been there, done that- it really is special.

Moments like this are very rare.

Warm fuzzies!!!!

This is so lovely. Happy New Year and love to Heart and Mom! Enjoy the snow.

I love the flashbacks. So much more fun and interesting than the middle school arcs. Today’s arcs are okay but the old ones were just very special. I’m glad we still get to see them now and then.

a beautiful mother / daughter moment.

I remember this strip fondly from so many years ago. I know Heart has to grow up and bring new challenges which I’m enjoying, but I do miss this sweet girl, especially in her tutu.

The “likes” on this strip will hit triple-digits for sure!

We live out in the country, a mile from town, 1/4 mile off the road. Some nights, when there is no wind you really can hear the snow. It has to be cold. Sloppy wet flakes don’t do it.

It is magic.

Snow used to be on every other channel, until they started putting blue screens on blank channels.

Another weird and cool thing about snow… if conditions are right, you can see the shadows. It’s an ethereal effect.
