Talking 70 today, 80 tomorrow, 90 thursday spring is here!

It's time to break out the tennis shorts and flipflops and go for some ridding. Bought had enough of the rain and freezing cold.

I'm still scraping the frost off of my cage's windows in the mornings.

I'll be breaking out the shorts here if it hits 50 degrees! Going to be 45 today so we're getting close!

Had snow here yesterday with more coming on Friday. No matter -- it will be another couple of weeks until I get my Tour Pak and other goodies from Lake Shore HD anyway.

Yep, BIG frost this morning. The rest of the week is supposed to suck but a warmup is coming. They are saying highs in the 60s by next week. Hopefully Friday will mark the last snow of the season.
