This morning I got going at 5am, whe the sky was just going pink in the east. I didn;t realize how COLD it was at first, and then didn;t want to go back up the hill for a jacket, so I froze in my T-shirt the entire way. No wind at all, though, and no traffic at all. I saw a deer crossing the road, which stared at me, then ran across to join its two buddies, afdter which all of them ran away from me as fast as possible.

It warmed up by the time I went home, and a nasty wind was blowing--the usual evening-shift headwind--but since I was leaving instead of coming to work, it was just right to waft me home.
