So it was a very pleasant surprise this morning when the day started off with sunshine and relatively mild temperatures. Determined to take advantage of this temporary relief from the bitter cold and wind, I bundled up and walked over to Riverside Park South to see for myself what people were referring to as "Freezepocalypse"!
It was an amazing sight! Looking south with Manhattan on the left and New Jersey on the right...
And north with New Jersey on the left...
In the distance I could see some ferries and a cruise ship was in port - hopefully getting ready to depart for warmer climes! With a calm wind and a brilliant winter sun I was actually quite comfortable but it was still rather laughable to read the notices advertising "Summer on the Hudson". Maybe I should take a cue from these kids who were having a heck of a good time with their sleds on this beautiful winter day...
Or maybe I should console myself with the calendar that proclaims only 26 more days until Spring!
