This may have been the plushest grass I’ve ever lounged on.  Really.  We went out to Randall’s Island for the annual work picnic.  The event was rescheduled after an outdoor concert turned the island into a muddy mess in June.  We were the beneficiaries of brand new grass.

It was a beautiful afternoon to enjoy a few beers, food, and ice cream with friends and colleagues.  I couldn’t resist and had 2 mint chocolate chip cones.  It’s summer, and they just kept making cones.  How can one say no?  I love the ferry ride back to 34th Street.   Great views of the east side of Manhattan at night.
