IT was a fun day. Tastings were $5 and $7……..I did the PIG thing. For $100 VIP PASS you could taste it all. I did NOT pig out!
But I did go for the PIG HEAD.…..took me back to my childhood days on the farm in Clarkesville Georgia.
The PIG OUT took place in Madison Square Park on 23rd street.
After lunch at the boat house we strolled over to theBethesda Fountain……and met this sweet couple from Australia………..Jayde and John. She has been to NYC four times……..this is John’s first visit.
The weather was fantastic. The geese…….the tulips…..the sketch artists………the “bubble boy”………the brides…….the turtles……….and thousands of tourist……….all enjoying Central Park.
CENTRAL PARK is ablaze with blossoms…….Cherry and Apple.
Artists capture the beauty………
The ELDORADO TOWERS get a great view of the reservoir.
We did NOT get the predicted 24″ of snow………..just a nice dusting……..as you can see in these watercolors. BUT….tomorrow it will be dirty nasty grey sludge.
The Dakota Apartments at Central Park West and 72s street………….and the benches just inside the park.
The lingering days of Indian Summer……..in Central Park.
I’m felling’ ducky!
The duck pond is just off Central Park West and 105th street.

MORMAN CHALK MANIA in Washington Square Park in Greenwich Village
The “elders were there with a box of chalk and invited us to take some child and DRAW!
I picked out three colors and joined “Elder” Steiner on the pavement for a bit of “chalk fun”.
“Elder” Steiner…………..what a cutie.
The park is a fun place to hang out.
This is a sweet little park in Greenwich Village…………and the kids who play in the park …….made masks………..and now the park has many faces. They didn’t buy stuff……they used things they found around the house.
