Here’s a different kind of morning.
Just before dawn, viewed from a United Airlines flight from Los Angeles to Washington, D.C., somewhere just over an hour before landing in DC.

You’re in for it now – storm remnants from the deep south are set to descend upon Washington D.C. in the next couple of days with temperatures to rise by almost 20 degrees! I happen to be in New York City at the West 100th Street New York Public Library right now and the weather on the east coast this dawn, when you took this shot, has been abyssmal; cold, pouring, my backpack is emptied of its weather gear, windbreaker, umbrella, splash jacket, high 60s. By Saturday “a flow of warm and humid air will prevail with high pressure offshore.” It’ll be 90 by then with spotty thunder and lightening! A week ago on the 16th the weather in D.C. was utterably eat-your-heart-out perfect, just like this picture you took, presumably including the Patomac below, and I then happily hiked the ten or so miles up Massachusetts Avenue from Dumont Circle by GWU all the way to Nebraska Avenue and back, past the Vice President’s residence, on the Wednesday when he was getting all that air time on CNN, the Lakers were still alive on TNT and Julia Louis Dreyfus was all over HBO with snippets of “Veep”. Take taxis. Are you on a One Way Ticket to Greece (to quote Nicolas Sarkozy)?
