In Transit, @ MSP
"The beauty of any flight, after all, is that, as soon as we leave the ground, we leave a sense of who we are behind. The four walls that marked and enclosed our lives this morning grow smaller and still smaller, less and less distinct, till finally they disappear altogether in the grid of houses all around. We rise and rise through the clouds, into a blue stillness, and the very 'we' and 'I' that seemed so urgent when we awoke become as remote, as hard to take seriously, as that house far, far below, now invisible."

~Pico Iyer in Sun After Dark

The sky was a pretty light pink on the ride to the airport in Kansas City this morning.

Hope everything else is rosy as well.

- Make way for money - Hey, someone got a little Santa hat up on the eagle overlooking the entrance to this apartment building! - Hmm, is the Street Department going to move the Toynbee tile? - Kansas City bbq downtown - So much for Christmas: a discarded Bible in the street

The photo I didn't get but really wanted: the juxtaposition of a dog running around inside a gallery in front of "obey" posters in a Shepard Fairey exhibit.

Poor Choices Nos. 1 + 2
this picture is owned by the submitter. contact submitter for permission before using it in any wayIf (as smart aleck Minnesotans sometimes claim) there is no cold weather, only poor clothing choices, here were mine today:

1. Cute hat, but it doesn't cover my red-cold ears.

2. My too-thin and short scarf.

Accessorized this morning with a cup of chai to help thaw me out.

I won't make the same mistake again. Tomorrow it's the stocking cap and big (and warm) pink scarf.

Skull soccer ball in the gutter--shop window--the prettiest lost and found notice, in the door of a paper shop--someone decorated this tree on the bank of Brush Creek in time for Christmas--and I just noticed the painted mailbox at the fire station.
