After another pretty frigid night (17 degrees), we waited until midmorning for the sun to warm. By ten we were off on our bikes for a two hour spin around the neighborhood. We went twenty-one miles in all. After lunch and a game of three handed cribbage, we spent the afternoon knitting, napping, and reading. Not bad pursuits. Judy, ever the multi-talker, also washed the bedding. My job was to make the bed, which has become easier with practice. The weather is gradually warming. By next week, after we leave, the days will warm to the mid seventies, and the nights will be above freezing. We missed the warmer weather, but the clear blue sky that greets us each day makes us forget the hardship. In fact, if it weren't for the brisk, bone chilling wind, it would be quite pleasant. Regardless, we enjoyed another blessed day, riding and relaxing just like we were on vacation. For us, life is good, especially today.
