by day the blue will pale down into white where it touches the white of the land, after sunset it has a new circumference-orange, melting upwards into tenderest purple. but the core of blue persists, and so it is by night. then the stars hang like lamps from the immense vault. the distance between the vault and them is as nothing to the distance behind them, and that farther distance, though beyond colour, last freed itself from blue. -e.m. forster (a passage to india)

and it turns cold again
today it turned cold again. yesterday it was 59 degrees, and this evening it went down to 28.
the sky was beautiful, with the clouds fat and low down and catching the sunset. this is sixth avenue and washington place.
That's cold for you!
