Tuesday February 7

A very encouraging sign are the Blooming snow drops and hellabores in the neighbor’s garden! The Blue sky was also a beautiful sight to see! I chose to ride my little loop through the forest as it was again around 3C/37F and the trails were clear – I thought.

I had cycled about two thirds of my loop when I came upon more snow on the path, but by now I was Beyond the point of no return, I didn’t want to turn back. It was time for me to be Bold and Brave and hope that there wasn’t too much snow on the path ahead. I was wary of ice hidden beneath the snow but it was all very safe and I arrived home without mishap.

Thursday February 9

More Blue skies, but in spite of the rising temperature, today 5C/41F, it felt awfully cold. Some days are like that. I didn’t feel like stopping too often for pictures – although my heated gloves are performing well.

I have some more ideas for B and the month isn’t over. Warmer days are in the forecast, too,.
