Today I rode my bike to work. What a beautiful morning for it. I am happiest when I'm able to be outside. It's about a 9mile ride one to my work, so I'm able to enjoy about a 45 minute ride. The only bummer is all the traffic and the lights. If I leave early enough and don't mind a few extra miles I can go about 1/2 the way on a trail. Today, however, I went the boring direct route; down Walker to Murray and than all the way to the end of Murray. The cool thing I discovered today is that getting over Murray isn't quite as hard as it used to be. I don't know if any of you have noticed how steep that hill is but it's been my nemesis for a couple of years now. I've been finding new ways to ride to work lately to keep the variety alive (and avoid the beast) so I hadn't done it in a while. I just wanted to say yeah me!
I had a great time on the backpacking trip. It makes me very happy to hear how much everyone else enjoyed it too. I love to backpack and it really makes it special when you can share the beauty with others.
