I’m getting close to my Love to Ride mileage goal for the year. Less than 300 miles to go! If you want to participate, it isn’t too late to set a goal and start riding; and you know they say, better late than never.

Our weather is about to turn unpleasant. It won’t be cold — in the 70s — but T-storms are in the forecast. It doesn’t look good for my trip to the salvage store. Rain is one thing; but lightning is quite another! 

We really need rain, though. We got some this past Tuesday; but it wasn’t enough. It’s actually quite amazing to see how fast things dried up again; and for us, that’s unusual.

Sunday’s forecast is much better: mostly sunny; calm; and a high of 74. The weather can hardly be better than that for riding😊

I’m also getting close to retirement. Just a little over two months to go; and I’m looking forward to having more time to ride. It will be nice to not have to get up at 4:30 am; and I can start to lengthen my daily rides a little.

I’ll have more time to work on this web site; and maybe I can take better care of myself when I’m home to cook. My diet has been badly off track for months; and it’s long past high time I got things back under control.

Getting back to the weather, it got more and more overcast all day today. It was a relief to not have the sun smack in my eyes on the way home!
