take the high road

I first discovered the high line in a new yorker magazine article. I was completely enchanted… the vision of a place just one story above the city streets where nature was reclaiming her right to run how the earth was decorated cheered me. Lately I’ve been despondant over humans. More on that, probably in a bit… but here is a case where nature was patient, saw her opening and went for it. And dang it if humans didn’t have the sense to try to protect this small victory. Check out :: Friends of the High Line :: for some wonderful photos (of seasons! rare for us west coasters) and commentary.
