Rosedale Park
Today, I just needed to get away. The PCI DSS project for the New Jersey Courts has been relentless lately—endless deadlines, meetings, and the constant pressure to get everything right. I’ve been feeling it weigh on me, so when lunchtime rolled around, I knew I couldn’t stay cooped up at my desk. I grabbed my camera and headed to Rosedale Park. It’s close enough to work that I could make it back on time, but far enough to feel like I’d actually left. This was my first visit to […]

It carried with it the soft rustle of leaves and the distant hum of cicadas.

Pearl Crescent at Mercer Meadows.
A few weeks ago in August, Bhavna and I decided to take a late afternoon walk at the Pole Farm in Mercer Meadows. It was one of those spontaneous decisions, the kind where neither of us expected much—just a bit of fresh air and some time outside. Bhavna had been eager to get out, and I was more reluctant, preferring the comfort of home. But she knew how to nudge me in the right direction, promising that we would stop by The Druery, a charming brewery near the Keefe Road entrance, just [...]
