New York is steadily transitioning into winter.  Most of the leaves are off the trees, eggnog lattes are in abundance and pea-coats are out in full force.

I am ready for winter but right around this time every year I feel a a tinge of longing for the last few days of autumn.  The bright colors, crisp 55 degree mornings and a general calm about the city.  I know fall is behind us and I am prepared for the next few months of winter. I have decided this year I will embrace the cold and intend to fully cover the city and all its winter related activities (and yes, I will attempt to cross-country ski in Central Park this year.)

In the spirit of days gone by, I will post a few more fall pics before digging in to Christmas trees, tourists and of course the snow.
