I recall Central Park in fall ...

My first real fall:

The North Lake


Leaves!

I made Courtney pose for a dramatic falling leaves photo.

Follow the Yellow Brick (Leave?) Road

Kicking a pile of leaves!! How I've always wanted to do that.

Two more reasons to love NYC

6. The leaves are changing. I walked by Central Park on the way to brunch this morning, and all the leaves are shades of red and yellow. Expect pictures sometime this week.

7. I went sailing in the harbor last night with a friend from high school who has the very fortunate job of being first mate on a boat. The city never looked more beautiful. Pictures below:

The Brooklyn Bridge from the East River

Downtown and the Brooklyn Bridge (to the right) from the Harbor

The Financial District from the Hudson River


And in other news:

Frodo Baggins and an evil Gladiator on Halloween.

5 reasons I love NYC this week

1. I found the only Ihop in Manhattan, and it's only 20 minutes away!

2. It snowed! Sure, only for like, three seconds, and only in the Bronx. But it was awesome.

3. Bruce Campbell (of the Evil Dead series) is here this weekend for screenings of his new movie, answering questions and stuff. Jealous?? You should be.

4. Halloween in the East Village is AWESOME.

5. This morning I randomly walked into a street festival in midtown. Turned out to be a Greek Festival. Yum!!
