Crimson Tide

OK, how lame is it to start my first post off with a comment about the weather?! But it's so deserved - the weather these past two weekends has been delicious. The leaves have been turning past few days, the crimson just starting to peak out yesterday. I'm dying to get out and ride - no destination, just soak in the season - but unfortunately, having just had my little operation a few days ago, I'm in no condition to do much but sit around. Fortunately, I had a few good books, and a coffeeshop a block distant, so all was not lost. In fact, spending the afternoon there, while not as great as riding would have been, was satisfying none the less.
