Kids Can Say The Darnedest Things
It snowed today, but that’s not unusual for this time of year. It was also cold, but that’s not unusual either. But here’s a quick story that is. Or if not unusual it’s at least rather funny…sort of I rode the Mundo to the health club this evening for a steam and a swim.Continue reading “Kids Can Say The Darnedest Things”

And I’ll say it again…brrr
Some nights it doesn’t bother me…most nights, in fact. The cold. But tonight it did. I’ve ridden in much colder temperatures, but man that cold went down deep into me tonight. I was glad to get home. I’m still enjoying the winter, but by this time in the season I wouldn’t complain if it warmedContinue reading “And I’ll say it again…brrr”

Brrr…
I haven’t been on a bike in a few days. It was warm over the weekend and I felt like walking to enjoy it, then the past two days I stayed mostly indoors nursing a cold. So today I felt like riding. Yesterday the temperatures plummeted…all I can say is: brrr it sure is coldContinue reading “Brrr…”
