Something to Celebrate

Biking Together Again!

Tuesday, April 14, 2020

Hello My Friends,

In this surreal time, some celebration
Is much needed—
I’m sharing mine with you.

I got to bike with Bob!
First time for months and months.

It is a Big and Wonderful event,
I felt happy to be with my bike buddy
Pedaling on our local bike trail.

Bob's new purchase:
A step-through bike.
Just right for getting on with his
Healed partial hip replacement.
Hooray!

Getting to bike together
Felt like a welcome normalcy.
During these restricted, stay-away times,
Here I was getting to engage in
Favorite shared pastime.
Lucky me!

I'm cheering!
I'm grateful!

Sending hugs to each of you.
May there be bright spots in your days.

Hugs,
Lin

P.S. Enjoy today's limerick: "New Norm For Hair"...
I'm used to bike helmet hair, but COVID19 hair
Is even more challenging!

Your posts are delightful! I am so happy for Bob to be back biking! Loved the hair post video – yours is looking very nice – lots of curl. It will be good when the snow goes and the bikers can return the paths/streets! Take care – you are loved!

Great, Lin and Bob, congrats on getting out together again. Thanks for keeping us posted, Lin, and happy healing to Bob! Warmer biking weather is just around the corner…we hope. Your former neighbor Dan (and Christine)

    Wonderful to hear from you, Dan! Those days of being neighbors hearkens back a ways… Good memories! Sending my very best.
