Summer's Last Kiss

Spent the last weekend of summer on Long Beach Island in New Jersey. Biked the barrier island up and down. Not much in life is better than a few daybreaks and sunsets at the beach. Here is a peek, more photos later in the week.

Under A Crescent Moon in Central Park ~ Ridiculously Deep Indian Summer

When I'm sad, a sunset can put new sneakers on my soul. Instantly, I run faster and jump higher.  Add 70 degrees to the sunset and I'm surfing clouds.

Yesterday, I walked around the reservoir heading west.  After dark, I biked south along the Hudson River seawall under a crescent moon.  Be careful next few days as seasons flip, you'll need your Autumn Sweater.

Saw the oddest thing in my travels, a pleased piggy offering a carrot to a hungry bunny.

More ridiculously deep Indian summer pictures here.

Indian Summer Gallivant Along Hudson Street

Visited the Church of St. Luke in the Fields on Hudson Street and discovered two boot wipes built into the nearly 200 year old stoop banister on the Parish House. Inside the church’s garden gate there was a sun soaked enclosed terrace with a southwest exposure. 

Walking south on Hudson Street turned left on St. Luke’s Place and saw Indian Summer in full bloom outside and inside James J. Walker Park.
