Airport Loiterer
July 11, 2024
A lot of my time is spent at the airport… I sit about the terminals, ready to board any flight that needs me. But sometimes I am not needed. And so I find different corners to photograph, different vegan eats to try. It has not gotten old yet, though some days have bordered on tedious. There are new people to watch, new views to see. And so my watch begins…
Leaving my car in the lot, I don’t know when I will return. Sometimes it is 8 hours later, some times it is 5 days later.
The historic terminal of DCA: Terminal 1. It has some photographic facades, like this one in the center of all the boarding gates.
A bright and sunny day at the airport
There is also an exhibit hall in Terminal 1 with great artifacts, including this scaled model.
Though I have been getting better at getting my steps in while on hot reserve, a lot of the time I am sitting, conserving energy in that chance that the day might prove to be extremely exhausting.
