We have been pummeled by rain and wind since the beginning of the new year. Today was a welcomed break in the weather, and some sunlight was seen from time to time. I ventured out to buy some band-aids, camera on my neck, hoping against hope that some moment of divine light would part the clouds as I approached a worthy subject. About all I could find was the Christmas wreath decorating the grate on this home on Seventeenth Street.
