Leaf on Jane

Sherry Felix8 Comments

Jane Street between Hudson and 8th Avenue in Manhattan, a block away from my home, is closed off which make it lovely eating at the Tavern on Jane in the street by a little garden. The Christmas tree sellers are back on Jane. I love the scent of pine but I feel sorry for all the dead trees and would never buy one. This leaf was sitting next to me during lunch.
