Flying back into New York City, JFK airport…

Yesterday, Labor Day  in the States, marks the unofficial last day of summer in the USA. While the actual calendar final day of the warm season does not occur for three more weeks, a lot of us are coming back from holidays, beaches and woods and beyond.

But, the mark of a true New Yorker –including ex-pats and orphans from other cities — includes an incredibly warm sense of home that fills  you when seeing the city skyline reappear when landing back at JFK, Newark, or LaGuardia airports. The promise of the autumn season, with fashion week, art openings, the CMJ music festival, and NYC night life beckons as do long brunches in unique city restaurants with friends back from summer jaunts. I’m already picking out my Hudson jeans for the change of season and lots of social ports of call.
