Jan 10, 2008 :: Brookwood Overpass

Some of the vantages I get on my walk away from work toward lunch-time locations scare me a bit. The one above makes me dizzy - pleasantly so. I love standing on the overpass, watching the cars whoosh by below. The geometry of the lines and oil slicks are perfect. The curve of everything away from me always makes me think of a rushing river.

Which is just exactly what this sounds like from up above on the hill just to the right of the picture. That's where my office is. A building on a craggy, man-made precipice, overlooking a rushing, man-made river.
