The Familiar Sounds of Spring

I got this email from one of my riding pals on Sunday afternoon and it made me LOL.

You have to know the person mentioned or it loses it’s impact.

Hi Barb

Missed you on the ride today. The weather has been magnificent! I have the windows wide open and can hear the sounds of spring…. the kids, the robins, but what really made me think of you was the gentle sound of Charlie calling

Spring!

Wow, still not quite spring on the calendar but this week has sure been spectacular. I have seen a lot of people out on bikes on the service road and early evening Tuesday night on Sweet Hollow Rd. I have yet to get out myself, much as I’d have liked to have played hooky from work. Best I could manage was ditching my shoes and socks and wearing sandals to work.

I have a 15 mile hike planned for Saturday at Minnewaska. Until Wednesday the park was only opened to skiing and snowshoeing.

Have good rides this weekend! And I sure hope this lovely weather continues, we deserve it after all the cold and snow the past few months. I am wondering how the potholes are from the nasty winter we had and also how the north shore roads are after last weekends wicked winds.

Feel free to post comments here regarding road conditions for those of us with other commitments this weekend.
