Since I started working downtown - I've been riding the subway to and from work, when I leave the apartment: it's less than a mile bicycle ride to the North Hollywood redline, and after an 8 minute trip to the Hollywood & Highland station, underneath the Kodak theatre, it's not even a half a mile to ifilm.

The subway here is surprisenly clean and under-traveled. Most nights when I'm riding back home, there are only 2 or 3 other people in the same train car with me - maybe 30 or 40 people in total on the whole train, which has about 12 connected cars. Although the North Hollywood station is kept spotless, the Hollywood & Highland station, only at night it seems, has a few discarded metro-maps and an opened newspaper thrown on the ground.

But my favorite part is the wind - looking down the tunnel you can start to see the subway's lights and soon after the building rush of wind, the metro-maps and newspapers begin to dance around, and the air doesn't smell stale or feel off, it's actually a very fresh gust that gets sucked down from one station and pushed to the next. There's not much else to this story, I just wanted to say how much I anticipate the wind while riding the Metro... I know it's strange.
