Call of the open road
This morning's walk was so exhilarating! It felt good to be outside, breathing that crisp, cool air and moving my body to a comfortable walking cadence. I thought of taking my bike out for a spin, but there is no time for that today, even though the temperatures and weather in general would be perfect—sunny, 45°, no wind, and the black ice melting rapidly. Perhaps I can celebrate the New Year with a ride!
Every one celebrates holidays; some celebrate with a slightly different twist. I’m not talking lemon or lime here. I've been thinking about going for a ride on Monday, New Year’s Eve, the last day of the year. Right now it doesn’t look good weather-wise. If I get to ride at all it will probably be Sunday. But that’s OK. It will be an experiment in “how foolish can I be on the last Sunday of the year?” What a great title for a story in Vol. III of my family book, Come Ride With Me. It all starts with, “I’ll never know if I don’t try.”
I’ll keep you posted—right here.
