On a hoppin Friday night I, of course, went to a museum, by myself, as usual. The Museum of Modern Art is free admission on Friday nights from 5:30 to 7:30 so it is always crowded. I've been on three different free Friday nights, and every time it's a zoo. This time, however, there was a line around the block. Normally I don't wait in that kind of stuff, but I wanted to go to see some of the new exhibits.

The unsung features of CP
I think that one of the most overlooked features of Central Park are the rock formations. Uhm, why doesn't anybody ever talk about them!? How come you never overhear conversations like: "How about those big rocks in the park?" "Yeah, you can climb them and get a great view of the city!" "Oh, I know! I like to sit on them sometimes."
Anyway, they are awesome and unsung, so I'm singing them now!
Can anyone tell me if these are real or man-made? Is Central Park man-made?

Could Central Park be any hotter?
And by 'hot' I don't mean temperature wise. Central Park is the greatest photo op. All of New York is a great photo op.

Waiting on the steps of the Brooks Brothers store as the sun set, for the annual light tribute to appear in the sky...

I remember last year the thing that stood out to me most was the placement of flowers in the fence that peeks into the site of Ground Zero.

For September 11th, 2008, there was a beam signing down on Battery Park Place between Greenwich and Washington Streets. This wonderful flag set up was there as well and it was nice to view and participate in the beam signing first hand.

Bridge and cookie(s)
I had a dream - to walk across the Brooklyn Bridge while eating a cookie. But I got lost trying to find the Mrs. Fields in Financial District, so I had to travel to the one in West Village, and that took up a lot of time and just made me hungrier, so by the time I got back to FiDi and to the "by foot" entrance of the Brooklyn Bridge, I had already eaten the cookie. Two cookies, that is.
Anyway it was a lovely, crowded, hot, sweaty walk across the bridge and back.
my default shot of the Brooklyn Bridge
The Statue of Liberty. Amazing everytime I see it :o)
Me - see ya!

Helicopters
When I was a kid visiting my Grandma in Upstate NY (Watertown), I would walk around her block and collect Helicopter leaf things on the sidewalk. They spin when they fall off the trees and have little seeds and butterfly like petals.
Fall is coming and these things are already falling in Astoria.
So cool.
