1. After the resumption of standard time, the afternoons became very short and the shadows very long.
2. The light was disorienting but beautiful.
3. I tried not to think about anything except the air, the sun, and my hope that the media would accept the fact that a majority of Democratic voters support the kind of institutional change espoused by the two most progressive candidates, and not the incremental change represented by the other candidates. There is, I thought, only one bridge to the future. And then I stopped thinking about anything but the air and the sun.
4. I parked my bike and walked to the steps, which offered a better view.
5. In the distance, I could see a bridge or the shadow of a bridge, behind which the sun was sinking fast.
