Comments
Comments: The forecast called for cloudy conditions, opening up to "partly cloudy" in the afternoon. But it really wasn't optimistic. I'm so glad they blew it. There was abundant sunshine, great views, and very clement weather overall. As we march inexorably toward winter, today was certainly a treat. This one is short and sweet, but sometimes that's exactly what you need.

Photos on my blog, as always.
