Day and Night
I love the winter…I really do. And I feel blessed to live in a region that has four distinct seasons. But I have to admit that by late February the bleakness can really bring me down (maybe it’s the lack of sun). Today was such a mix of weather I did not know how toContinue reading “Day and Night”

Excellent Television Commercial
OK, I realize that I claim this to be an ad-free blog…and it is. But every so often I come across something I feel worthy of posting that happens to be a commercial. This is an example. I love this commercial and think it is excellent for so many reasons (and yes, one of theContinue reading “Excellent Television Commercial”

93 Million Miles
I love this photo; I took it this past Sunday; there’s more snow on the ground now. This is a photo of the board I use to walk the Mundo up into my house (the bike weighs 60 lbs with nothing on it). Anyhow, what I like about the photo is the pattern ofContinue reading “93 Million Miles”

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…”

The Return of Winter
Over the weekend it had gotten so warm–nearly 50F–that most of any previous snow had melted. I’m glad it’s gotten cold and snowy again…it just didn’t seem right having it that warm in January. We’ve had it pretty easy this winter; usually by now we’re pummeled with multiple feet of snow (hope I didn’t justContinue reading “The Return of Winter”
