Weekend Edition

 

October 25-26, 2008

 

Need I say more?  It is Autumn in New York City.  Both the weather and the scenic wonder is so incredibly beautiful, I get the overwhelming urge to stop the clock and live in the moment. (If, in fact, such a thing were even remotely possible).

 

I am certain that global warming has caused the leaves to change and fall a little later than usual with each passing year.  As a kid, in the 80's, I remember it being fairly cold by now, and the leaves were pretty much on the ground.

 

Now, however, it stays a bit warm as the leaves change.  This slight warmth continues as they fall to the ground and the days get shorter. There are days in New York, where the leaves are so brilliant, the sun is so strong and the weather is heavenly.  I feel like I am at heaven's gate, particularly in Central Park on a Saturday.  Secretly I am holding back a holler.  A big 'ol scream of joy.  I just want to shout... "I love this place... Calgon, take me away..." or something like that....

 

My dogs love it. They love the combination of the beating sun, the slight chill, the heaps of crunchy leaves, and the unseasonably warm Fall days. 

 

Dogs love Autumn in New York and global warming.
