This Afternoon

My mother-in law is in town.

I decided to ride trails to school this afternoon.

I'm not saying those two things are related.

I'm not saying they aren't.

Winter shoes

It's sled dog season.
Cool to see them out running on my commutes.

Not Getting My Hopes Up.

The ice is melting and spring is in the air. A couple of warm sunny days and people's mood are noticeably improved. I'm not getting my hopes up though. First of all I know better, second, I like winter and I am not ready for it to end.

I'm not inclined to complain about the weather, what's the point? It doesn't do a thing to change the weather. For today I'll just enjoy riding in just my bike shoes.

No neoprene shoe covers, no cozy wool boots, no 16" tall rubber boots, just a pair of socks and a pair of shoes.
