yesterday was cold, wet and dark. bummer, considering we had two amazing days during the work week. the rain pounded the gray sidewalk for hours, the sky rumbled and roared with thunderstorms as the lightning fought back with a bright crackle and flash. the pups pouted at the entry to our building because they didn't want to face the storm.
we spent the day on canal street with jason's friend ellen who is in town for her class reunion. we had lunch in china town and a yummy dessert in little italy. best cannoli in NYC...FOUND! walked the streets shopping and chatting.
today was glorious, the reason everyone brags about NYC fall weather. finally we got a taste. the sky glistened a crystal blue, the trees glowed a golden yellow in the warm sunlight and the squirrels scurried around central park with excitement in their step.
we walked around central park for a few hours and covered about 4 miles with the pups. they didn't seem to mind for a second about the distance, (we usually have to drag them down the block) they devoured the fall smells as jason and i would stop and try to capture the beauty of the season. i've decided, i will post pictures of central park in every season. it truly is a bit of heaven in a very hectic city.
all of these fall colors inspired me to deck out our mantel in some festive fall colors. our fall halloween inspired mantel.
this weekend starts week four in NY. and i definitely have moments that i am so ready to be back in CA. poor jason has to deal with my moments of tears and frustration. it has just been very hectic with EVERYTHING being brand new. we have booked our flights to come home for thanksgiving and i am so excited!!
