The Most Enjoyable Commute in the World

Strolling through the park in the early evening.

What can I say, I just cannot stay away from Central Park at this time of year.  So many subtle, yet colorful changes. And the way the dusk sets in, the atmosphere is indescribable...maybe if I were a more eloquent person, a poet perhaps I could write something that would do it justice.  The best I can do is offer you snapshots of the beauty I get to see on my "commute" home.

Felipe and I had an opera to go to last night (Il Trovatore - an excellent MET production), and walked to the opera house through the park.  This is one of the best advantages of working on the East Side.




I love this particular path, in the early evening when the lights just come on.  it's just below 59th street, but seems like such a quiet, peaceful and inviting place to sit on a bench.


And then there was this little guy.  Of course we did not pause too long to say hello to him, given the history of rabid racoons in the park...but just a little peak of his face gave us a bit of a smile.
