Bethesda still feels summerish

In the winter the Bethesda Fountain is dry and the gooey green stuff in The Lake by The Boathouse is frozen over, but something about this spot can still make you feel like it's summertime and you've gone for a jog in your shirt and shorts, like most people did on a fairly warm February day when the temperature peaked around 50 degrees.

Bethesda

The Bethesda Terrace, located in Central Park near the east 60's and 70's, was a popular spot on Sunday February 8th. Saturday it had been warm, in the 50's, and on Sunday it was warm up until the afternoon when it became cold and windy again. People were out jogging in shorts and shirts though. It was freakish.

So the Bethesda angel is part of the Bethesda Fountain that blesses the Bethesda Pool (in The Gospel of John). Her wings are pointy and pierce the sky.

but what I really love about Strawberry Fields...

is when I leave and head towards the center of Central Park in the 60's; towards the lake and Poet's Walk.
