April 1st


Here's is the last remaining remnant of snow in our yard. Like a vampire it hides from the sun. It would be nice to say there will be no more snow this Spring, but the weatherman predicted snow for today. I hope he was joking. I am not big on April fools jokes. But we all know here in Wisconsin that we can get some heavy snows even in April.

Out riding the last two days. It is good to ride. The trails at Hoyt are just a bit too wet yet to ride. That is why Ray's is open until May 1st. And since I have been promoting Ray's for free, Wisconsin in my visitor counter (it records by state) surpassed California in number of visitors. Yes, Wisconsin and California is where the vast majority of my visitors apparently live. My bike is in need of a good cleaning and tuning. And I need new tubes. Those Chinese tubes just don't last. Everything is made in China, except for the stuff that's made somewhere else.

And speaking of China, I've put a snippet of my next book on my writers blog. A very rough first draft. I had to rewrite the section as the computer I am using is incapable of connecting to the Internet and this computer does not have microsoft word. Over 2,000 words yesterday and nearly that today leaves me posting in the middle of the night. The preacher on the TV is singing that all that was lost, all that was taken away, all that has been stolen will be returned. Amen. It's now after 2 am.

Misao smiles when I say I'm going out riding and then I'll be writing. "Wridng and riting" she says, or something like that. She is focusing on my weight loss project now, which should be helpful as she plans the meals.  I really need to put more effort into my photos. You can catch a glimpse of my next book here.
