Taking the Red Line…

Why did I take a pic at 6:20 am while getting ready to board the T?! Well, I guess I was looking to capture my new morning routine. Hopping on the T at the crack of dawn to get to MGH by 7. Note the lack of crowds. The lack of any hustle and bustle. I kinda like it this way. Just the sound of the train screeching over the tracks, an overhead speaker announcing the arrival of the train, the smell of rubber and metal mixed with coffee and popcorn…the fresh stack of “The Metro” newspapers waiting to be read, a few dozen strangers silently beginning their day. Some read The Metro, others(like me) read their own books. Some like to listen to their ipods and then there are the people that just sit and stare, either in a daze, or people watching. Though it sounds fabulous (not!), and is cheaper and beats sitting in traffic on 93 South…I’m pretty darn glad I only have a couple more days of T riding before I move onto evenings and nights.
