Washington is a city of Southern efficiency and Northern charm.
John F. Kennedy
Far from the Midwest I was able to savor this moment in Georgetown last week as the sun set on the campus, reminiscent of a much older and graceful time. The silhouetted building on the left is a portion of historic Healy Hall. Seeing a contrail kept me grounded in the 21st Century for sure.

See more beautiful sky views at Skywatch Friday.

Beautiful capture. And nice to run across another Minnesota blogger.

Surely JFK was being facetious though?
