To the east, the distant snow-covered mountains were also visible, if one knows where to look for them. I zoomed way in. Some trees have grown up that slightly obscure the view. These are two of the Three Sisters, probably Middle Sister and South Sister:
By the time I got home, it was starting to get dark, and there were plenty of Christmas lights on Donald Street, so I got J. to come out for a walk with me once it had gotten fully dark. We went all around the immediate neighborhood, and I made a point to go to E. 39th Place, to the house that has had these lovely globes in their trees for more than 20 years now:
