about 17F this am but warmed up to around 30F for the ride home. A mix of snow and rain.

tonight 2 rats ran across the path in front of me. My response never fails to crack me up. I see them, feel my face involuntarily grimace into disgust , they run off, I shiver and go, "yecch!!" and shake my head like I can't believe their audacity.

I prefer the suicidal rabbits I encounter a little closer to home

Other than that a pleasant, albeit damp, ride.
