This was one of those days that reminds me why I do this. Super quiet and peaceful on the way in, I saw a gang of raccoons pillage a trash can then waddle across the street with their booty. I said "cool!" out loud when I saw them... two jumped in to a storm drain, and one waited and stared me down.

The way home was interesting, nice sunset, interesting people watching since I decided to take Tennyson instead of Harlan. I stopped at Sunflower Market and picked up dinner... I'd never stop there if I had a car because it would be so inconvenient to get home through town. Bought some yummy produce, went home, changed shoes, and went for a run. I'm really happy that after an 8 mile bike ride I have the energy and motivation to run... after going through periods where I didn't really take care of myself, I'm suddenly hit by how big of an accomplishment today's ride and workout really is.
