Spring Verification


I've been meaning to post these photos for a while -- I took them last week in Stuyvesant Square Park. I always like to see the crocuses just to verify that spring has, in fact, arrived. (You wouldn't have known it from yesterday's windy and chilly weather.)


I went walking yesterday morning over in Chelsea and nearly froze to death in a t-shirt and jacket. The weather reports had me expecting a nice weekend, so I was unprepared for that blustery gale off the Hudson. Today is supposed to be nicer.


Also yesterday I met up with an old pal from Sarasota who I found on Facebook this week -- turns out he's living in New York now! I hadn't talked to him since I moved up here nine years ago, so we got together for coffee in the afternoon to catch up. He looks great and he's collaborating with another guy on writing a musical, which is pretty ambitious!

I've found several old contacts on Facebook recently. It really is amazing!

  1. You could be a poster child for Facebook. I think that's the way it's supposed to work. Maybe it requires that one first believe...

  3. I'm going to visit an old high school friend in Florida next month. I am so jazzed. I love FB!

  4. There are beautiful signs of spring all over NY and NJ now. It is very exciting.

    As for FB, I have reconnected with so many friends from the past. It has been a wonderful experience. After my hesitation to join FB I am happy that all is turning out so well. But ya know, I still don't Twitter. :)
