When in Rome

Arrived just after 7a local time and made the train trip from Fuimicino airport downtown and to my guest house by 10a. Weather is cool and sunny, it's spring and I hear my first church bell above the noisy street below my window. I will head out soon to kill jet lag, get lunch and see what's what.

One down, one to go

Friday March 28

Spring is taking so long, or perhaps it's because of the last nearly 3 months political crap. So this extravagant plum tree in blossom is wonderful. More of my journaling is now off social media. I don't want to be tied down by social media peer pressure to be performative. I'm biking, working on home projects, waking up my spring garden, cooking meals, walking, socializing, reading, watching dvds, resting, planning trips overseas and local.

Overdid it

Spring ride but 35+ miles and too much sugar gave m exhaustion and chills. So got #40 bus home to rest and warm up. Likely anxiety related

Saturday March 22

Chilly spring ride to see the daffodils and the snow geese.

Very cold day to ride the Cedar River trail

Sleet at the 10.5 mile mark.

68 in Leavenworth

A few miles up the Icicle Ridge trail after lunch at Yodelin. A gray but dry day for a drive over Steven's Pass. Feels like spring over here.
