Airport Fun

So I am sitting at the Reagan National Airport waiting for my flight home after some meetings here today. It snowed in Chicago all day, hence my flight is delayed...YIPPEEEE! The riding has been a bit sporadic, obviously I am on the road now and I was out of town for my brother's wedding in San Diego last weekend and didn't ride. I did ride the bike at the hotel last night but that is not the same thing, not to mention the fact that the bike did not have straps on the pedals so all I was able to do was "push push" instead of spin. On the positive side, I did get a work out in and that is always a good thing.

On a totally unrelated topic, cell phone cameras suck! It amazes me that phone companies suggest that it is a benefit to have a camera. There is no benefit and serves to make phones more expensive. When did this epiphany come to me? Well, today I was driving on I-495, the belt route that circles Washington, DC. One of the coolest things about this freeway is that the Washington, D.C. Temple is right next to it. When you are heading west, there is this awesome section of road where the freeway is going directly towards the temple. The temple is the only building you see and it is right in front of you. It looks like this (still not a great shot, but you get the idea):


I tried to take a picture of this, realizing that it wouldn't look great but I at least expected it to resemble what I was seeing. Well, I took the picture and I couldn't even tell that it was a temple. I couldn't even see the temple. Very annoying!

still, that is a pretty cool shot
and I just hate cell phones and their companies, especially sprint!
