Indulgence #1: Last night I ate way too much pasta. I cooked up a huge feed (adding a bit of capsicum and tuna for a personal touch) and demolished the lot of it! Damn that felt good!

Indulgence #2: This morning I burned off last night's feed with a 133km ride through mountains, valleys, rainforests and a return via a coastal route. That was just beautiful!

I feel like the luckiest man alive in the entire world!

:D

Actually, I think some of that snow is headed up our way, we're supposed to get some tonight and tomorrow. In montreal, the average for dec. is 55 cm of snow- we've had 9!

Hi,
bewtween the snow and the wind piling it in my drive; I figure I have 3 hours of shoveling to do manana. Wish I'd measured my arms, they feel bigger from all the shoveling, and my upper back is getting this thick layer of muscle. If this keeps up, I'm gonna look like Ahhhnold by Spring :rolleyes:

I'm jealous. Wanna trade locations for say, oh, three or four months? I spent some time in Queensland, Cairns, in 1999 during February. Beautiful country, great kind of climate, great experiences there.

Actually, my favourite part about the conditions was that it was overcast. The sun didn't show until the last 35km or so. That, plus the big southerly kept the temperatures down beautifully.
