Central Park Memories
Horseback riding in Central Park
1979, I believe
Only did it once
Was taking lessons at a riding stable on the Upper West Side
Couldn’t really afford them
The park ride was our only outing
Was a between-school/job thing
Did a lot of Central Park stuff
Summer of 78, had a job on the East Side
Would often cut a diagonal from the West Side if the weather was nice
Much more pleasant than the subway
Sometimes would catch a performance or do a picnic
Went ice skating once
Jogged around the lake several times
Had heard Woody Allen often did that jog, but never saw him
Maybe he took the money and ran (sorry about that).
