Yes, we have one more day of Indian Summer here too (can I still say that?) so I'm trying to make the most of it. Tomorrow's probably the last time we'll see 70 degrees in Ohio until maybe the January thaw, and if not then, late April or May.

I celebrated my birthday with a 35 mile round trip to the courthouse to pick up my jacket, that I'd accidentally left in the jury room yesterday I wrapped my Xinglet around a lightweight backpack to give me a little bit of visibility on the road, and had a really nice solo ride. I made sure to take the toughest hills on the outbound leg, so that I wouldn't have even the extra weight of my jacket on my back

Six or seven miles from home, a nice looking buck crossed the road in front of me, and at about the same time a school bus passed me. A kid started yelling out the window something like "Get out of there!" Sounded like a middle school age kid. He kept going on. I couldn't tell if he was hollering at me, or the deer.
