This is the 34th season for the New York Botanical Garden’s Holiday train show. For our little group (which added two new train aficionados) it was the third season. Upon departing after a wonderful few hours of laughter and amazement of the artistry of this exhibit we all committed to doing it again next year. To add to the beauty of the train show Mother Nature gave us a beautiful Sunday snowfall which made this special place even more enchanting. The show runs through January 11th. I encourage you to attend. All aboard!

First Taste of Snow at the Central Park Zoo November 11, 2012

It has been a rough 10 days in the metropolitan area.  First Hurricane Sandy and then a nor’easter, called Athena.  I know the snow is a hardship to many people but I love the Central Park Zoo’s beautiful animals as they see and taste their first steps on the freshly fallen snow.

My good friend and zoocation buddy, Mary Schwalm has produced a desk calendar for 2013.  The calendar fits into a CD sized case and is a free standing display.  This popular 2013 animal themed Desk Calendar is available for purchase. It is only $10 plus shipping. You can e-mail her at mary@maryschwalm.com for orders and further details.  The photo below shows you the cover and one of the months. They make great holiday gifts and they are going quickly.
