I want to wish all my subscribers a happy and healthy new year!

After a bitter cold spell, the first day of 2023 was beautiful. It was a cloudy morning followed by some mist and then a sunny, very warm Spring-like afternoon. The sunrise was a sight to behold.

Later in the day, the temperature reached 60 degrees F/ 15.6 C. Runners were in shorts and t-shirts. Folks were eating outside in restaurants and cafés. It did not feel like January in Washington.

I am sharing my very first photographs of the new year. It was a glorious start.

I wish you all the best for 2023!
