It isn’t winter yet but Friday seemed to give a good idea of what it could be like, as brisk winds buffeted Washington, giving teeth to the bite of cold temperatures.

I managed to make an appointment to donate blood after someone cancelled this morning. I got that donation done right away, and I just kept going. I got back home at about 4:39, by which time it wss chilly.
