It's 67 without the heater on. The heat makes it so stuffy.

It's nearly time for bed and I cracked open a mountain dew. It's been 3 weeks since I've had one.

Oh how I've miss you, dew.

It's going to be 41 at noon and 46 at 1:00 today. I've been working on getting a small group ride together, hopefully some people show up for it.

Yay for weather reprieves! My boss said he's going to get his road bike out.
He mentioned this week that there's an indoor MTB place opening in the Mil. I will have to look into this.

You don't use a wood stove? Mine gets us into the upper 70's after work, 80's on the weekends. I've got enough firewood for 2 or 3 seasons around here.

btw, we finally had some sustained flurries last night giving us our first dusting of the year - accum about .01 inch.

. . Sorry.
