Thursday : 14 September 2006
Today has been good.  Work was good.  The lunchtime workout went well.  And the post-work evening was relaxing.  There was even a bit of rain.  That cooled things off quite a bit; the forecast is for the cool weather to continue for the next few days.  The mountains could even see… snow.
