I Don't Always Stay Inside

It was too nice outside to spend another Saturday cooped up on the couch reading, so I packed up my comics and magazines and headed to Central Park to spend the day reading there instead. Took a few pics on the way in and out and thought I'd share.

Upon arriving at the Great Lawn, I quickly discovered I wasn't the only person in NYC who wanted to get out and enjoy the weather...


I'm sure the Ultimate Frisbee geeks were crushed as bikini-clad sunbathers covered their turf...


Squirrels and birds are everywhere in the park, but it's not often you come across a raccoon mother protecting her baby in the daylight...


Just thought this contrast of colors in bloom looked cool...


The way the late afternoon sun hit the Rose Center Planetarium gave it this really eerie, ethereal vibe. I just wish my little point-and-click had picked up the light a little better...



For as much as I hate New York sometimes, these first few days of early summer really bring out the best in the city!
