. . . is in bloom right now, and it's as gorgeous as ever. Truly, when 40,000+ bluebell bulbs come out all at once, it is a sight to see! (To get some idea, check out the banner photo, which shows just part of the display.)

Shadow Shot Sunday
| My brother and sister-in-law have a friendly, comfy house on the North Fork of Long Island. I love to get out of the city and spend a weekend out there—where I can commune with the neighbor's wonderful old tree. [To see more Shadow Shots, go here.] |

Skywatch Friday
| Early-morning clouds over lower Manhattan— I'm so glad the weather has warmed up enough now that I can break up my subway ride with a walk across the Brooklyn Bridge pretty much every day. How lucky am I to start my day with this view? [To see more Skywatch, go here.] |

Thursday Challenge—"tools"
| Well, these are the tools of my trade. (Although more and more, editing is done on the computer. I'm happy to save the trees, but I miss working with paper and pen.) [To see more of the Thursday Photo Challenge, go here.] |

ABC Wednesday—P is for "Paris"
| I love this city—I lived here long ago and I'm determined to have an address here again some day. For inspiration, I opened another blog a while ago and I'll be posting to it on the first of each month (for starters). Here's the first post. [To see more abc Wednesday posts, go here.] |

May Day
| This big red sculpture (Joie de Vivre, by Mark di Suvero) stands at Broadway and Cedar St., in Zuccotti Park— once actual, now symbolic home of the Occupy Wall St. protestors. They've been fomenting a bit of mayhem (a general strike would be nice) for this day, and I'm curious to see what they're able to generate. [To see more Ruby Tuesday posts, go here.] |
