Love the Spring in New York City!

    The picture above was taken last Wednesday arriving at  Kennedy Airport for my visit with Stephanie. The Spring air feels great and I can't wait to hit the streets running and savor the sights, smells and sounds of the Big Apple. NYC is my favorite place not only as my Daughter lives here, but the opportunity to experience culture, traditions, history and some of the best markets and food venues in the World.  With the Spring and Summer festivals and street fairs you are treated to the unique essence of urban city culture.  My first stop was Central Park for a walk, and as always delighted to find these Gentlemen below "jammin"  with  that Jazz feel to bring you back to the 60's flavors of a typical Manhattan afternoon! Sit back and listen to the music for a minute....

New Yorkers have such a stylish way to create container gardens and small places that are so inviting to sit and enjoy the Spring weather.  With the sun peeking through the stoop below captures the highlights of this traditional style. I absolutely Love it !!! ;)

  From a Town House to a High Rise Spring flowers are blooming all over. It is the beautiful colors that compliment the vintage architecture that completes the feeling for me. I enjoy the experience, and equate it as walking through the art that you would see in a gallery. 

      With the afternoon coming to a close Dinner became my next thought ....... Stephanie had it under control and  she whipped up a scrumptious meal of oven grilled peppers, onions and sausage with an arugula salad with beet noodles, tomatoes and carrot.  Truly a delicious way to start a Spring visit with Stephanie in this beautiful City!
