the gates... THE GATES!!
While I had intended to write about it sooner than this, I suppose now is as good a time as any to mention that while down in the city last weekend for my birthday, I went to see “The Gates” in Central Park. If you’re not familiar, “The Gates” is a new work by Christo, the guy who, among other things, has wrapped Berlin’s Reichstag in fabric and filled a California valley with 1000+ giant yellow umbrellas.
