I’ll admit… this guy wasn’t totally spontaneous. I had a hunch he was hiding… and when I knelt down and faced the sky, I saw my assumptions were correct!

Looking down on the ground sometimes has benefits! Especially when you’re greeted by such a friendly face in a somewhat unexpected place!

Perhaps it was simply because I needed a smile or two today, but I started, for the first time, seeing Smileys without really trying to look for them… this one was one of the most provoking of all.

My 7 year old called me over to see this smiley in his cereal.  He had never heard about this project but knew it was worth sharing with someone!

These eggs were the result of a visit from an old friend. Whenever we are together, we get intoxicatingly hyper. We literally run on the same joke for hours.

Beer certainly brings a Smiley to my face.

The girl from Canada, where there are a lot of snow… and smilies! 🙂

I was getting dressed for work and I saw this.

This is Restaurant Marseilles in Manhattan.

Found this Smiley hiking the Ucannoonic North Mountain in Goffstown, NH.
