Spring Preview

New York seem to be experiencing a snow drought. For the second weekend now it had been perfect weather, today hitting 60 degrees at three weeks before spring officially makes an entry. The last day for February and according to the news, we've only had 0.7" of snow the whole month. Hey, no one is complaining and certainly not me.

A friend and I walked crosstown to Riverside Drive and strolled along the 79th Street Boat Basin. The usual crowd of joggers, baby strollers, bikers and others basking in the nice weather and breeze were already there before us. Seagulls flew overhead, ducks were resting on platforms and it was really a perfect day. And pigeons, lots of pigeons.
