Ridin' The Metro

I'm in DC for a seminar/training, and it's snowing, with 3-5 inches expected. This is when it's really nice to have underground (mostly) public transportation, so I'm glad to be on the Metro. I'm headed back to Vienna, where my sister, brother-in-law, their dog, and their unborn baby boy live.

So far the AMA seminar is interesting, and the participants come from many different companies and positions within them. I'm having fun, but I miss my Mia and Nadya.

The commute is easier than I thought it would be, although that's due in large part to my sister's willingness to get up at 6:45am to take me to the Metro station (so I could avoid walking to a bus stop, waiting in the cold for the bus, etc.). Have I mentioned that my sister's really cool. Sure, I'd never have said that 20 years ago, but it's true.

Is the underground transportation heated?

Sure is. The trains and the platforms are climate controlled.
