It was another pretty rough week for riding but the dense fog this morning was no reason to stay home. Great ride around the southern end of Lake Washington.

I have been off my bike for almost a week now, grounded by the snow and ice. So, "books on bikes" have temporarily morphed into "books on foot." I just finished listening to another wonderful book by Amor Towles: The Lincoln Highway and am now working on the 2nd book a lighter trilogy: The Secret Keeper of Jaipur. Good company as I pick way way gingerly along the icy roads and sidewalks!

This most beautiful weather report greeted me this morning. And around Lake Washington I went. Listening to a new podcast ("Soul Music" on BBC Radio 4) and another "book on tape." And NO rain. And then, sunshine! It felt like an enormous gift after all the rain and dark of the past week.

Well, the holiday party has not QUITE returned, but at least we get to do a Cookie exchange. No sampling allowed ('til you're out of the building). But still, I am grateful!
Back home from Thanksgiving and determined to ride despite the super gloomy weather. Did the south loop which is not particularly conducive to book listening. But over the past several weeks I have enjoyed a number of books, among them an old favorite: Ann Patchett's "State of Wonder."

COVID's not gone yet (see current events in Europe) but it was wonderful that we felt safe enough to gather once again on Lopez for Thanksgiving. A relatively small group of 12 felt just right. Everyone contributed something to the effort, and it was a lovely time.
Thanks again, all!
