happy accidents {may 22, 2022}

Weather...unpredictable...sunshine...rain...no umbrella...15 blocks from my hotel and found a dry spot under an awning.

I look catty corner across the street and there it is.

Felice. It means happy in Italian. 

While waiting under the awning, I time the lights to run across Columbus Avenue (busy street) and then quickly dash across 71st (not busy) for shelter from the rain and a glass of Prosecco. Apologizing for my slightly rain doused appearance, the young man behind the bar said, "No need for apologies. It is a happy accident that you are here."

Felice. 


More happy accidents during the week in NYC. ❀ ❀ ❀ ❀ 

❀ Walking into St. Patrick's during a mass for the graduating seniors from the Catholic high schools in New York City. Cardinal Dolan and a large delegation of officiants presided. Felice.



Strolling through Central Park and watching a mama and papa goose look for food with their little goslings. Felice.


Opening an imposing door and peering down the aisle at the Church of the Blessed Sacrament. A take your breath away moment. Felice.


Subway art! (R Train, Central Park South and 59th) Felice.


And last, not really an accident, but when in Manhattan, you gotta have a Manhattan! Felice.
