A 10 OUT OF 10 DAY
New York generally gets no more than a handful of perfect
days each year. The first Friday in November just happened to be one of them,
low sixties, blue skies, a paintbrush stroke of falls colors and a clear view
for miles.
The emerald jewel in the cities crown has always been
Central Park and even though I had a couple meetings to navigate on Friday and
an early evening flight I still carved out an hour to walk over the cinder
paths now covered with a patchwork of golden leaves in one of the most
magnificent parks in the world on a day that was nothing but perfect. I would
be guilty of being greedy if I didn’t share.
Here goes.
