I did a solo walk today in the Southern end of Central Park. Well, that's if you don't count Patrick, who had a blast bopping around the park! It was a great walk but I wasn't dressed in enough layers to stay out as long as I had hoped. Also, Patrick refused to wear his backpack today, so I just dumped my water bottle, doggy water bowl, iPod, and phone in my purse, which turned out to be a total pain in the neck. Next time, one or both of us is bringing a backpack!
On our way to the park I couldn't stop smiling after we saw this guy toting a wheel-cart full of boxes down the street like any old New Yorker:

I was an avid LOST fan, even through the poorly written seasons so it was a nice start to the walk to see Mr. Emerson hoofing it in my very own neighborhood!
Patrick and I walked, climbed, and rested in the park. I was surprised at how many people were out and as I walked around looking for interesting photo ops we stumbled upon a number of lovey-dovey couples as well! Below are the photos I took while we were out!

| I rode this carousel with my campers this summer. Today Patrick and I climbed the rocks behind it -- I love the combination of elements in this view! |
 |
| The bridges in Central Park are so beautiful! |
 |
| Gotta love the fall colors! |
 |
| Notice the city peaking through! |
 |
| Under a bridge -- I think this is my favorite photo from today! |
 |
| The ING marathon is tomorrow -- good luck to those who have been training for it!! |
 |
| We walked past Lincoln Center on the way home and stumbled on the circus! |
All in all, a good start to this project!
Next Saturday, 11/13: I'm meeting my friend Nancy for coffee and a walk near the Brooklyn Bridge! If you want in on the walk part, you'll need to give me a call!
