gray day


The grass is still green, but the day is gray. With most of the trees bereft of their leaves the bike path looks like a different place to ride. There weren't many folks using the path, but you could see them coming from a long way back.

The sun is trying to make an appearance, though the forecast calls for a cameo at best. I like this time of year, but I'm not wild about winter. I understand that I need to live through the winter to truly appreciate the spring, but I don't need winter to test my patience. Take your time in getting here, do your thing and move on.

Then the splash of color I saw today will be joined by all the colors of spring; flowers blooming, birds in the air, and brightly colored cyclists on the trails.
