Returning Home

Hello My Friends,

Back in MN where piles of snow are smaller,
Some bare ground visible,
Little bird on porch railing,
River raging near flood stage,
New season is coming!

Returning after any travel is my challenge.

Being deliberate to reenter my town.
With community connects,
Observing progress toward spring,
Self-care—(a haircut from Tina!) 
and light schedule,
Bring me back to this location for good life.

April holds travel plan to Seattle and Sequim, WA.
Getting to be speaker for Public Library and Storytelling group,
Lets me "spread the word,”
And see some family.

Outdoor biking will come to MN.
I'm kind of picky about conditions...
Roads cleared of winter grit and gravel,
Warm enough so all required layers still allow movement.
(I've not embraced fat-tire winter bike scene).

All well and moving forward.
Hugs to each of you,
Lin

P.S. Many Thanks to each of you signed up for these “Bike Notes.” Help me spread the word & expand the numbers. Tell folks about following this octogenarian on her bike trips. Cool! Forward this email; sign up on home page.

Limerick:

Your friends can all read of this biker,
I know they will find that they like her.
She's eighty that’s true,
Yet they'll find like you,
Good cheer, whether biker or hiker.
