"A New York Treasure" --Village Voice

Something Wicked This Way Comes

It’s been raining in New York for at least a month. Weeks and weeks of rain. Last night we had a sunset to show for it. It was gnarled and fantastic, dramatic and beautiful. It was also a hex on the Mets as they made three errors in one inning. 

Here’s a great shot from the New York Times.

It was sunny this morning but the clouds are moving fast and the weatherman says 30% chance of rain. 

Hopefully we’ll get another purtee sunset.

Times knocked it out the box. I would have given ANYTHING to have been there and taken pictures with a good camera.

Awesome photo ...

and speaking of awesome .... Pujols has gone deep twice more today .... currently at 28,74,.328 and 9 SBs for the year, with really no protection in that lineup.
