...clear sailing




Yesterdays drive into work was fast and clean. It seems that most everyone is out of town. Maybe that or people are taking the Paris metro. Unlikely because it doesn't run from Kimberton to Valley Forge. But on this day in 1900 the first line of the Paris Métro opened for operation, instantly liberation people and enlarging their geographic lives. Anyway, the Paris metros' architecture was influenced by Art Nouveau. The network's sixteen lines are mostly underground and run to 133 miles in length. It is the second largest metro in the world, Moscow being the first. Please send out positive thoughts and prayers to wonderful MW who was just diagnosed with breat cancer.
