Another dry commute at about two above this morning. Spectacular yolklike sunrise; glass-fronted houses glowing gold and fuschia on the hillside.

Extra riding last night as I commuted homeward via Ukrainian Xmas dinner at the in-laws' place. Soft buttery homemade perogies, good wine, riding over the roaring dam at 8 p.m.

Really enjoying myself this week thanks to this brief letup in the rain.
