Alex in "our park."  Photographed with Nikon D300, 70-200mm lens.

Alex has taken to calling Central Park "our park."  Like:

"Mom, are we going to our park today?"

I won't start worrying until she starts talking about "our bagel shop," say, or "our Guggenheim."

Adorable! I would worry if she starts saying "our subway" or "our empire state building."

I'm past due on pounding out another story for my own book right now. But after lunch, I decided to take a visual inspiration break. Which means I came to you. I flipped over to your portfolio and was swept overseas. And now I feel all rested inside (really) and I'm off to work. Thank you!
