Rare Saturday commute today and an even rarer Sunday commute tomorrow. Lots of runners on the Mt Vernon Trail this morning, many running in packs wearing matching tee-shirts. Must have been some kind of organized running event. In any case I experienced more early morning traffic than I would during the week and got slowed down multiple times having to wait for a chance to pass.

All was well though. I kept reminding myself that in just on week I'll be off on my first overnight bike camping trip, which is one of the few things keeping me sane and happy during this busy week at work.
