This past week was filled with sales calls on our favorite clients and the chance to make some new ones. I traveled uptown and downtown with my subway pass in pocket. Everywhere there were signs New Yorkers were in full autumn mode. One day as I walked past the two lions that guard the famed New York Library, gardeners were removing begonias to make way for chrysanthemums. Pumpkins smiled back at me from windows and a few light showers washed fallen leaves in gutters.
