Feels like winter already

Just a short walk to the park today - it was cold and lightly raining. Thought it would be better to go home in the bad weather. The lake was gray and choppy and quite pretty in a fall-coming-in way. But of course, the weather later in the day made the morning look like a summer vacation. Snow while the green leaves are still on all the deciduous trees. Global weirding, as they say.

Brooklyn College in the afternoon, to see the Chinese acrobats. They are the official national troupe, and absolutely fantastic, breathtaking, impossible, etc. Costumes were as beautiful and inspirational as the performers. Definitely put the sunshine back in the day.
