The Fish Creek Library looks like an Egyptian pyramid tonight

I didn’t go out looking for a picture of a pyramid today. As I walked across the parking lot, the silhouette of the library made it look like a classic Egyptian pyramid. This as Egypt is in the middle of turmoil.

Usually, this is just a library, and usually it looks silver. It is not a pure pyramid in shape. What you can’t see here is a kind of bisecting gash designed in the top one-third or so.
