East of the Sun

Each morning I drive about 20 miles into the city. It is often a lovely drive, despite the traffic. Today the landscape was breath-taking, with a rising sun to the East and a setting moon to the West, snow-capped mountains and shimmering foothills and a hazeless city spread before me. I could see fifty miles in every direction, and it was beautiful.

As I travelled, Charlie Parker with Strings played "East of the Sun (and West of the Moon)" on Jazz89. I've often enjoyed listening to Charlie Parker, but never so much as this morning. It was a perfect morning.
