I woke up this morning to sunshine pouring in the windows.
Figured I would make up some breakfast, let it warm up a bit and get a 100 mile sunday ride in...
Nooope. Before the sausage was done, the clouds moved in. It is daaaark and pouring now.
Dammit. I need to move back to somewhere without winters.

About 75 degree's today. Was outside working on the pop up camper all day. Not a fun project but has to be done by spring. Trying to take advantage of the good weather right now.

Yeah, 'sposed to be near 60 here coming into the weekend. I think that is gonna be the last hurrah for me. Although, it was a few years ago I had to bring my bike outa mothballs 'cause opening day of rifle season(nov15th here) was 83° and sunny as hell.

Yesterday I rode to class in 36 degree weather. I had a big bubble-wrap envelope under my jacket on my chest and snowboarding pants over my jeans 
Thanks, for a country where nobody is allowed to mind his own business. Thanks, for a nation of finks.
