There is a pronounced difference in the sky here. But because I'm up higher, I can see the horizon more clearly, though it seems nearer. Anyhow, I shot this out of my bedroom window tonight. Just beyond the tree is the National Cathedral, which you can make out during the winter.

I sent off a resume today to someone who might know of a job in Sen. Baucus' (D-MT) office. I would love to work on the hill. No harm in optimism, right?
