Just enjoying the view

In contrast to my more depressing thoughts of terror and fear, I was actually rather enjoying the view out my office window this morning. With today being the third to the last day of work this summer, I was savoring the view which I will not have the chance to see for a few months.

Today was particularly beautiful. With the sun shining and the humidity lower than it's been in months, I finally have a clear view of the harbor, being able to see the hills on Staten Island for the first time in weeks. The FujiFilm blimp slowly crawls across the sky as helicopters dart along the skyline, heading to circle the Statute of Liberty. Ferries, freighters, and sailboats cut white wakes in the blue water of the harbor. Lady Liberty herself is resplendent in the morning sun, her green copper robes shining like a beacon.

I'll miss the view. It's been a good summer, and the view was a nice part of that.
