Over threee years ago I saw my first Next Gen in person. Today I finally get to ride one. All Aboard 2152 destination Philadelphia. So far the ride is smoother and a quieter, but I understand the critisism about the seat comfort.

Sunrise from my train ride to Philly this morning.

From yesterday’s train ride to and from Philly. A bright blue sky in the morning and warm red glow at night crossing the Susquehanna river.

Nice sunrise unfolding as Amtrak 2152 heads north. I can never take good pictures of the moon with the phone but the waxing crescent moon over Baltimore this morning was lovely.

Something about the reflection and the bridge caught my eye on the ride home last night. Had stop and take a picture. Later the sky was even more warm and wonderful.

A tail of two commuted. Yesterday’s bike ride along the tidal basin and this mornings train trip along the Delaware river.

Sunrise as Amtrak 2152 crosses the Gunpowder river in Maryland. My last work trip to Philly for 2024.

The sunset was probably even more spectacular before I rode by on my commute home yesterday night. Should have left work 10 minutes sooner. Far cry from tonight's foggy rain.

Saw a bald eagle eating some breakfast in 4 Mile Run on my ride to the office today.

Calm water at the tidal basin on this morning’s ride into work.

Man this Invalid Handle thing threw me for a weird loop.
Growing pains I suppose.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Tuesday’s view on my ride home.

Supposedly I can cross post in Spoutible and have it show up in BlueSky.... trying this out.

Ok, so I have yet another social media account that I'll neglect.

Here's my cat taking her rightful place beneath the Christmas tree.
