Walk in the Park–leave your blues, take in the greens

It was such a glorious weekend here in NY, going into Central Park felt mandatory.  I missed the spring blooms this year, but there’s plenty of beauty in the greenery.  Unless you go deep into The Ramble, you really can’t forget you’re in the middle of the city for more than five minutes.  People, the detritus of people, shadows of buildings and artfully placed pipes remind you.  I don’t know about anyone else, but I kind of love that.  Makes a statement.  Not sure what that statement is, but I know it’s there.  Yesterday, though, I gathered the girl, the dog, and the cane, and focused more on the greens. We went to The Pool, a manmade pond on the north end of the park.

Ok, yes, I took a lot of photos yesterday.

I like this one
I confess, Art Child isn’t the only one obsessed with trees.
Memorial Day is one of 3 days each year when it’s legal to barbecue in the park. The scent of charcoal and charred meat was palpable.
One of my favorite spots in the park, you can almost pretend you’re in Louisiana.
I would like this bench for my terrace.

Happy start of summer, Fringelings.  Soon it will be beach days!

  4. I’m glad you and yours had a chance to experience such a lovely place on such a lovely day.. The photo of the bird, flying away is beautiful, Mrs Fringe. Thank you so much for taking the time to capture the essence of that afternoon, and doing what you had to do to share them here. A gift for your fringlings, and one I really appreciate.

    xoxo kk
