Ceiling of one of the exits at the Friendship Heights metro station. The picture at the right shows the ceiling in context. L. and I went shopping last weekend at Friendship Heights; specifically we headed to the Borders book store there, armed with coupons printed off the web for 15% off any item. Even with the discount, it was hard to find anything that was cheaper than ordering from online, and that's even adding in the cost of shipping for the online stuff. Sad. Amazon really has become the Wal-Mart of bookstores.
