Of all the Brooklyn blogs that have debuted in the last six months or so, none has had us looking forward to more from the start than Prospect: A Year in the Park. (OTBKB featured it yesterday.) It’s from the blogger behind Crazy Stable and is devoted to daily posts on Prospect Park. From the first post:

Here’s the deal: I hereby commit to walking or cycling in Brooklyn’s magnificent Prospect Park every day for a year, with as few exceptions as humanly possible, and then showing or telling you at least one cool thing I encountered, through this new blog.

Yeah, so what’s the big deal? Lots of people go to the park every day, right? But I don’t. I look at it outside my windows, and then I slink around my big ol’ house, screen-suck at my computer for work or play, take naps, overeat, watch TV, garden, or chug around Brooklyn in the car doing errands.

And here’s a sample from yesterday’s post about the Tree of Memory:

Strange, even gothic, discoveries on a day that had already seen its share of emotional turmoil. The park’s lake was tranquil, with gulls picking their way across a film of ice.

But this lakeside tree, with its umbrella and filthy pillow, turned out to be the back door to a dwelling; I circled it and discovered the front door.

It should be a nice 2008 full of posts.
