Emily, my eldest and a student at Johns Hopkins, took a train down for Thanksgiving. It arrived in Rocky Mount at 7:30 in the evening. I got off work in Raleigh at 4:30.

I am NOT a patient person. The best tool I’ve found for combatting impatience is a Leica with a fast lens. I wander and take pictures. Better than tolerant, I had a good time waiting.

Here are the pictures I took waiting for Emily’s train. (It was on time.)
