Saturday showers then sun & almost 70º

I did bike to the library on Friday, even rode half way to the park just to go a little farther than just straight from home to the library. It was chilly, but there was no wind, so it was much better than yesterday. On the way home it started to rain, but again, not bad.

Today it rained in the morning & then cleared & got sunny. Gordon & I did a bit of yard work in the afternoon. He took down the old fence between our yard & the Howards' & raked up debris. I yanked up a fair amount of the ivy that is covering up our "rock garden." Now you can see the rocks that edge it at least. There is still a lot to do, but it's a start.

Then we decided to go for a short bike ride, so Gordon oiled his bike & pumped up the tires. We were both tired from yard work, so we didn't want to go too far, and he's on call so he didn't want to be too far away in case he got a call. We started out for the Arcade Park & then on the way back went up Water St to North, to West St & then back home on Main & Park. It amounted to 3 3/4 miles. Not a lot, but it's a start at least. More will come.
