Taken in front of Union Market, a gigantic gourmet food hall in northeast Washington, D.C., that has become a popular go-to place for all kinds of food. We like to go there for creative grilled cheese sandwiches, my favorite being one with Gruyère and caramelized onions.

It's gotten quite cold here, with a nor'easter heading our way this afternoon and evening, so shorts are but a pleasant memory.
