This was a warm day. Surprisingly so. I got out in it early, did a bunch of errands, hiked Beech Hill with Jack, though a number of times how nice it’d feel to be riding my bicycle—but I didn’t. Still stuck at 1,500 miles for 2011, exactly. And I’m liable to stay there.

Because we’re supposed to get snowed on tomorrow. Like, a lot of snow.

But today had fresh air, mild temperatures, chickadees, bronze hillsides, blue sky, and a little flock of goldeneyes at Chickawaukie Lake.
