Be sure to drink plenty of water for your travels.
Personally, I long for cooler weather and could even handle a light dusting of snow, like the one seen in this photo taken around 1960.

beautiful shot...
I did not realize the bottom half of the dome was painted beige. I thought it was always all white?
How long was the dome multicolored?
And yes, that is a beautiful photograph.
In the early years the dome was painted with a reflective silver paint as in this photo.
Alas, I do not know when the change in painting the dome occurred.
