Very very nice indeed.

If it stays clear I may try something similar tonight; I walked around
the pier and the overlook close to my hotel last night well after dark
and everywhere I turned I seemed to be tripping over photographers.  I
felt almost naked without a tripod.

How do I get the free senior fare?  Do I need to show a passport or
will my Oklahoma drivers' license do?  You would think they could just
look at me and tell...
