But wait...
Before I go - or went - at this point I am mid-travel, there was this. This is the Conservatory Garden in Central Park (at 106th Street and Fifth Avenue). You must go now. The blossoming will not last. I was furiously riding my bike from work to get home in order to race to the airport and in passing, I couldn't not stop. These gates open onto the most delightful garden - transport you out of New York to European gardens. I could only stop fleetingly and now I'm pining to return, thinking of the path of pink petals and the rest of the gardens (it is pretty extensive) that I didn't get to witness.
(Ignore the lady on the bench's little sneer).

What a beautiful place. Wish I could have explored it with you.
Lovely!
don't you know adults aren't supposed to get on their knees on the sidewalk to take pictures of fallen petals. let alone notice them at all...
love that sneer.
Emilie- I am LOVE with your third picture! Can I grab it? I want to use it as my screensaver.
Bec
of course my dear becca. would be delighted if you did.
I love how you stop to smell the "roses" but in this case the spring blossoms! You brighten all our lives by the way you live!
