Cold, but when its sunny it doesn't seem as cold. Just layer and all is well!

I rode to the grocery store and back. Gene--those photos rank right up there with you most amazing photos yet. I cannot believe the yellow cast to the underside of those clouds. Did you get a camera with a filter on the lens?

Thank you for the kind words, Lisa. I have a remarkable compact camera that does all the things I do not know how to do anymore. It knows apertures and f-stops and all the other things I used to know but forgot and does them automatically. No lenses. No Photoshop. At night I turn the flash off and it produces stuff like that from tonight. All I worry about is the cold and the composition. The hardest part was staying still enough in a pretty nasty wind.

Those are fantastic Chi Lowe! Especially that first one.....burrrrr." The second makes me miss Chicago very, very, very much.

Well that was fun, I love a downhill run. Wonder how the headwinds will be tonight.

Not too crowded out there, eh? Amazing how the water keeps the shape of the rip rap as it flies up!

I rode in--not bad on the side streets. I am reserving judgment for the ride home which is northbound and when the wind and gusts are supposed to be worse.
