I'd just like to say...

That seeing the tops of tall buildings vanish completely into an unbroken ceiling of clouds so low that it looks like you can reach up and touch them is an experience I think everyone should have.

that really is cool. Almost as cool as driving in the mountains and looking down on the clouds with the peaks jutting out of them and the valleys just a blanket of lumpy white

I hear ya. Not having any mountains out here, I have to settle for this as the next best thing. But man, was it pretty.

we don't have any real mountains here either. I live on the memory of mountains and the Blue Ridge Parkway. Of driving down twisting and curving roads on the edges of nothing and looking down on the wings of a soaring eagle. And of overlooks where you stand on the edge of nothing and look out and at cloud shadows drifting across the distant mountains.

now I'm all nostalgic and poetic. That is not condusive to fangirling over Shep turning into a bug (well, not so much that as the arms and various moments of 'ship). meh. I miss the mountains so very much. *wistful sigh*

There's a Blue Ridge Parkway here in Kansas City. Sadly it runs through the 'hood and the only way you'll look down on an eagle there is if you're soaring on crack :(
