There’s nothing like waking up to blue skies and bright sunshine— especially when you don’t have to go to work. It’s about time we got some decent weather on the weekend. During the workweek, days like today usually tease me as stare helplessly out the window from my desk. Once Friday afternoon arrives, the bright skies are replaced with rain or sleet to put a damper on my weekend plans. I had to take this opportunity to enjoy the weather, explore the neighborhood and take a few pictures.

The giant black, spotted eyesore— otherwise known as Smith & 9th Street station.

And to think, this next picture was taken only a week earlier…
