since i monitored at the sheep meadows in central park...

i noticed that i was feeling more inspired every time i see the gates in many different environments. when it was raining last night, the gates gave me a positive aura (probably due to its saffron looks as they were gleaming out in the rain). the sun gave the gates a radiant glow everywhere. the wind gave the gates a bubbly spirit. i guess i should point out that in order to appreciate this vast art project, you'd need to spend at least a few days at central park to get the positive vibes.

i was told that for christo's drawings, he and his wife, jeanne claude, had actually walked over 100 miles in central park to look for the perfect ideal locations for the gates and changed their shoes 3 times... i guess that shows you how devoted the couple pursued for this huge project for the last 26 years.

anyway, i've heard that one of our paid volunteers is ACTUALLY a former governor of texas. funny how you meet some cool people at central park. today i met a CODA though she hasn't signed in years as her parents have long passed away a while ago... i met many germans and they are more entertaining to mingle with than americans as many americans are somewhat clueless about the gates while the germans are pretty educated... so much for the education of europeans... but hey, we the americans still kick ass... (or should i say ashamed to be americans?)
