Pocket Gardens

I love New York, but you have heard that from me before. A few of decades ago New Yorkers grew tired of being the concrete jungle and decided to make some changes.  They cleaned up their neighborhoods, cracked down on crime, and developed initiatives to make their city more hospitable.One of those initiatives suggested by...

The Feel of Night

What is it about the night that makes the world look so different?  Walking at night is one of the things I love most about New York. As sunset fades deep in the City, new life is breathed into the streets as mammoth digital billboards light the streets with colored air and flicker sponsored ads... Continue Reading →

A Crown Jewel

We love Central Park.  It’s one our favorite places to go to just enjoy the day. Doesn’t matter what the weather is.  In the winter under a blanket of snow, we lay down in the Sheep Meadow and make snow angels.  In the spring, we walk through the Ramble catching the flora come to a...

With our umbrellas tucked out... Continue Reading →

It Was a Very Good Year.

Tradition requires this to be a day of reflection and for looking forward. On the last day of 2016 we lost Quah, our dog of 16 years. She was the kindest, gentlest, best looking dog we have ever owned.  She was a mutt like us, and she was always an important member of the family.... Continue Reading →
