I'm thankful that in our first ever tandem ride (we just bought a pre-loved one) that DH and I 1) did not fall and 2) did not kill each other

I just found this thread ... Very nice!
Today was fun, a short but pleasant ride on a clear sunny day, with friends and lunch with them after. Portland Int'l Raceway was repaved over the winter, and they had "open house" today. Walkers from 10am to 11am, bikes and walkers sharing the road from 11am to one, then the cars and motorcycles after 1pm. Brand new smooooooth pavement for our bicycle races this year will be wonderful!!!

I am thankful ... that my mother is moving on, that she got busted out of the hospital today and that my sister was there for her this week to help.
... for all the beautiful trees we saw today.
... for nature's infinite layers of texture, colour and density.

Thankful that I didn't get hit on the road today by the reckless (and they think drunk) kid who crashed his car just a way down the road.
Thankful to the nice fireman who took pity on me after over an hour of standing there, sweat-drenched and freezing in the cold, darkening afternoon.
The Staters were letting a lot of people walk around, including some locals who lived there, but they wouldn't let me through, even after the ambulances were gone, and after a bunch of people had walked around all over the site.
That fireman said, "Don't look around, just follow me, then disappear." I was freezing cold, and he helped me get on my way, only 20 minutes back to my car. It was the very end of my ride.

I am thankful that I finally found my driver's licence yesterday while on my way to the DMV to get a new one! It's been missing since last fall....
