that good

You know how there are some friends that you don't see for a long time, but when you do hook up again, it's like you never missed a beat? Well, yesterday I was with someone like that. We've known each other for almost 30 years, but haven't gotten together in almost a decade. He lives in NYC, so I took the train down (1.5 hours of uninterrupted knitting/podcast time!) and we wandered the city, mostly aimlessly, for almost nine hours, talking all along the way, visiting the zoo in Central Park, stopping here and there for a bite to eat, to watch the ice skaters in Bryant Park or the fountain at Lincoln Center or to see something interesting.

This pic was taken on the stairs of the TKTS booth in Times Square as we were meandering back toward Grand Central. The weather was brisk and beautiful, and we had no plan for the day except to spend some time catching up with each other's lives, so we couldn't go wrong. It couldn't have been a better day.

Don't blink and let another year go by. Reconnect with an old friend. It feels that good.
