It's really hard to summarize oneself for the general public. I mean, really, what does the public want to know about me? Am I married? Yes. Do I have children. Yes, three, and they're all grown thank God. (By that I mean parenting is HARD. I'd do it again in a heartbeat, but I'm really glad our offspring have all reached adulthood.) Do I have pets? Yup. Two dogs. Since the kids are all grown, you'll read more about my dogs than my kids. Because that's what happens when you get old like me. I have three grand kids, too, so you'll read about them as well. But the dogs live with me and, when I am desperate for blog topics, they usually help me out.

My bike is parked in the garage. Temps in these parts are still on the cold side.

Hubby’s bike on left, behind the snowblower.

Really cold. It was 22 F (about -5 C) at about 3:30 p.m. when I walked the dogs. But the wind chill was -7 F (about -14 C).

We are not used to that weather.

We had a dusting of snow overnight, too. You can see it on the driveway in that first pic. More was forecast, so they spread salt on the roads again.

Now, even if it does warm up, we have to wait for the salt to get washed away again. Sigh.

That’s okay. My bike is parked safely in the garage.

Spring will be here soon enough.
