Hey everyone I think the sun is going to finally make an appearance today. It's currently 7:05 AM as I write this post. It's very grey outside but I was just watching King 5 news and they said clearing! Sun sun sun by this afternoon and tomorrow . . . GORGEOUS! My fingers and toes are crossed hoping this is true. Because I NEED TO RIDE! I haven't been on my bike since Saturday's mountain bike ride with hubby. It was a blast! My daughter took tomorrow off because of the nice weather forecast to do a road ride with me. So it better be beautiful! Sue

nice, Susan. I've been commuting (not monday) and so far i have stayed dry.

I've stayed reasonably dry only because I've beaten the rain by getting home before it starts ,

Otherwise I would look like a river rat.

Still, I like rain, it's in my blood .

there are certainly worse things than our rain..

there are certainly worse things than our rain..

Yes, our solid, gray, continual cloud cover.

[mimitabby]

no, there are MUCH worse things than our grey skies.
How about 100 degrees every day for weeks? ugh.
I'll take this weather ANY time. you can go riding in grey
but can you go riding in Thunderstorm weather? or tornado weather?
or 30mph prevailing winds
or 100 deg and 80% humidity??

Or our weeks of gloom and rain in November not to mention wind storms that knock out power for days . . . weeks! Fallen trees, debris . . . let's hope this winter will be a nice one. I think we deserve a nice winter after our wet summer! Add nice fall to that too!

It's pretty humid right now but no precip! And the sun is trying! I may have to go for a ride this afternoon. You gals that ride in the rain are hard core bad a#%es! I'm a big gutless chicken when the pavement is wet. But I can blame this fear on a bad accident 5 years ago while riding in the rain. I've never gotten over that crash.

I'll never forget the year when hubby and I did the TOSRV-West (double century from Missoula, Montana to Big Fish, Montana and back) in 2003. The last 30 miles of day one it started to rain and I was a nervous wreck. If it weren't for my hubby I would have been crying on the side of the road waiting for the rain to stop and the roads to dry. But he stayed right by my side with encouraging words.

The sun is out . . . the sun is out!

And I see blue sky!!!!
