Why do I not spend everyday in Washington Square Park? I absolutely love it there. It truly was love at first sight. I remember my first experience with WSP. I wondered around, watched a great magic show performed by a street performer, took photos, enjoyed the people. When I moved here, it was under construction for what seemed like the longest time... and I didn't go there, other than to walk through from time-to-time on my way to get drinks for Happy Hour south of WSP.We had friends come and stay with us for a week in the middle of July, and this park was a must see for us. We chose an evening so that Seth could join us after work. It was wonderful. I didn't actually want to leave... They pretty much had to drag me out of the park. We watched a variety of performers and saw so many people... so many creative, unique people. I do love New York City for this reason... Everyone can just be. It's so different in the Midwest, where judgments tend to fly when people conflict with the "norm". I'm sure it's like that in a lot of places... But it doesn't seem as thick in the air of this city.
The new fountain... One your can actually get into! This little boy obviously Loves it.

These are some more great pictures. I love the one of Seth and his friend with that fountain behind them. And, the one of the sax player. Wow. You gotta love places like this where you have to be dragged away. Hope all is well. Have a great night.
Man I need to get down there. Haven't been in a while.
One of my favorites spots in the world. Great photos!
Oops... I meant the one with the trumpet.
