Absent blogger welcomes you
Just my luck...my 15 minutes of fame start ticking, and I'm out of town! (In Colorado, to be precise.)
If you're a first-time visitor who saw AYITP featured in the New York Times, welcome. I'll be back and posting July 20. (And based on that photo of me, I'll also be going back on Weight Watchers.) Meanwhile, after bookmarking (or signing up with a feed reader), have a look around (the links below will give you a sampling). Then go visit Prospect Park this week. If you encounter anything fascinating, which is a probability, tell me about it by leaving a comment, and thanks for stopping by.
January 1: The pilot episode. (But unlike Lost, you can follow along without it.)
January 15: Meet the ghosts.
February 12: Remember snow?
March 18. Young lovers and old poets converge.
March 30. I trespass with tigers.
April 18. Signs of spring: buglers, monks, and Emily Dickinson.
May 24. Merriest-go-round.
June 30. Ragin' crustacean.
More to come...and absolutely anything is possible. See you next week.
I just came from the NYT. I love Prospect Park, this site is great!

I saw the article in the NY Times and thought I'd visit. I grew up on Hawthorne St. between Nostrand and Rogers and spent a lot of time in the Park. I remember the good like going to the library, and the bad, like having my brand new bicycle stolen. I remember moving from there to the Marine Park area on Nostrand Avenue but coming back to Prospect Park to go horseback riding and to have a picnic with friends or just to go to the zoo or carousel. Thanks for keeping its spirit alive!

I'd never actually heard of the New York Times until Brenda mentioned it in this post. What a cute little newsletter, and thank God Bill Kristol finally has a outlet for expressing his opinions.
Congrats! Meanwhile, the link you provided to the NYT piece is broken; anyone looking for it can click here (I tried to abbreviate the hyperlink to no avail):

RB, you're the best--and I fixed the link. It is a fine little paper, isn't it?
