My car has been in the shop today and yesterday, so I've had a couple of nice 9 miles each way commutes. There's been some rain, but not too bad. Feels good after not riding for 6 days--we had bad thunderstorms and a person died, so I didn't want to be dumb, riding in thunderstorms.

The mornings have been glorious, high 40s and cool and misty. Only bad thing was twice yesterday I had a vengeful father Canadian goose hissing at me for daring to ride past his family. Once I shrieked, cause he was being pretty terrifying. I lived to tell the tale. I know that geese and swans get pretty protective of their goslings/cygnets. Can't say I blame them!
