Dateline: Comfort Inn & Suites, Houston. The room has 12 foot ceilings and chipped paint around the shower. Our flights were smooth and mostly boring, with the dramatic exception of an acrylic sunset somewhere over southeastern Colorado. The sun's fading light gave off one last gasp and layered itself tightly on the horizon for the night. The intensity of the colors - deep rich salmon on the bottom transitioning quickly through all the colors, including light blue, to darkest night with bright stars high above - cannot be adequately described, painted or photographed with any degree of credibility. Any rendering would seem contrived and exaggerated, or worse, amateur.
