autumn moon garden

"Look down: a river of grass. Look up: a velvet lost
and found. Look inside: no straws to drink that dusk."

Saturday in the park ...

I enjoyed a wonderful 4th of July with friends ... dining al fresco at Karma Cafe in Hoboken, hiking along the waterfront, up past 33rd street ... for a heady impressionistic display of fireworks against the Manhattan skyline. All on the loveliest of summer evenings. (Photos, not my own!)
