First Snowfall



 


Park by the East River. 





                           
We had our first snowfall this past weekend in New York City and I couldn't have been more excited to wake up to a white backyard fire escape. I'll never get over that feeling of waking up and running to the window to take a peak at how much snow has fallen, just like when I'd hope for a snow day. My roommate and I took a stroll in the snow over to East River Park with our thermos of coffee in tow. Yes it was still snowing and freeeezing but it was well worth it. I always visit the park and it has never felt more peaceful. I couldn't help taking a picture of that beautiful berry bush covered in snow, one of the few colorful things that survives the cold.
