Often by Christmas or New Year, here in New England, we would have snow on the ground, or at least frozen ponds. However, this Christmas was relatively warm, having followed weeks of warm yet cloudless days. No snow or frozen ponds. Finally, on Christmas afternoon, the sun came out. We took a brisk walk by
Pleasure Bay.
Today, though Saturday, I was heading to my office. If I get off the train at Charles Street, I have the opportunity to pass through the park on my way. In the morning sun, the Public Garden proved quite photogenic, even with bare trees, no snow, and an unfrozen lagoon.
That is perhaps the most wonderful aspect of this park - that it remains beautiful in any season! Here are some photos of a Saturday in the Park, on a snowless winter's day.
