Great springtime weather we're having in Vermont. Yesterday was my innaugural ride in the Budvar Budweiser jersey I got in Prague a couple of weeks ago. I think it made me faster, because I was chasing down unsuspecting pleasure cyclists like a madman.

Waiting for a red light (in the Budvar jersey), a carload of coeds went by, and started tooting their car horn. The women on my side leaned out their windows and started waving and giggling.

This morning I spotted a blue heron wading around in some flooded land near the lake, and swimming past it was a cormorant (bird). I'm not sure what food they're trying to find. Frogs, maybe?

A woman was walking her bicycle through the same area and I said, "Problems?" She said, "No. Just looking for birds!"
