It rained before I got up this morning, and the radar showed a lot more showers coming, but I took my chances and rode. Foolishly, I didn't wear my raincoat because it looked like the rain was still an hour or so away. It started sprinkling as I was leaving the neighborhood but I didn't feel like going back for my coat, so I gambled on the heavy rain holding off. I lucked out. Although it sprinkled all the way to work and the roads were wet, it never rained hard enough to get me wet.

A raccoon walked out into the road ahead of me, took one look at my headlights, and then ran back into the woods. They sure do walk funny, with their hind quarters up in the air.
