Today was my short shift--5 to 8pm--and the weather was so nice I couldn't wait!
Left around 1pm, and took an alternate route--off the highways--that was about 12 miles. I cruised around town for a while, visited a friend, and ate supper in the park, reading my book. (A Bicycle Built for Murder, which disapointingly isn't about biking, but still good so far.)
I took my normal route home, and thanks to it's being near the longest day of the year, it wasn't even remotely dark when I got home.
Great day!
