Much of my family lives in Ottawa, Canada, and so now and then I like to check a live webcam across the street from Parliament Hill. Mid-winter it can be lovely, with snow all around and the Canadian flag streaming with the Gatineau hills behind; mid-summer it’s even nicer, with a verdant lawn on a gorgeous cliff overlooking the Ottawa River.

Not to make people there feel bad, but it’s a lovely day here in La Jolla, as you can see from the live webcam at the top of nearby Mount Soledad:
