Sunday
Nice day. Perfect weather. Nothing on the “must be done today” agenda.

  • Went for another 5-mile bike jaunt this afternoon. I discovered something after I got home: Riding, even though it makes my legs a little achy on the uphill stretches, is not that bad. In fact, it’s fun. Especially when the endorphins kick in and I get that “Let’s go another mile-and-a-half” feeling. The thing that is bad is having to carry the bike back up the damned steps after riding. Oh, well.
  • Went to lunch with Jess before she went to work.
  • Went to Wheeler Farm again. Walked around a took a few pictures.
  • Went to B&N and had a cup of frozen mocha goodness while I sat in the cafè and drew.
  • Came home.

We have Cottonwood trees here. In the Spring, they bud and produce cotton-like… spores, I guess… which blow all over Creation. (Here’s a simple way to visualize them: If a dandelion grew to the size of a tree, the “cotton” would be the puffy spores.) “Cotton” is ALL over: In the air, on the ground… everywhere! In fact, it is so prevalent around here that it looks like it is snowing.
