    ok, we're working on carpooling and caravaning plans for this ride next Sat - planning on meeting at a North end P&R lot (Shoreline, right off an I-5 exit) @ 9:15. If folks have room for another rider and bike, then we can group together for the drive up/back.
    Let me know if you're interested in joining us!

    Tulips Are Here!

    The paper reports the tulips are up --- I haven't driven over to check it out, but see them in everyone's garden blooming, so I think we will have a beautiful ride on Saturday! Looking forward to seeing everyone, and I am doing Sunshine Dance!

    Thanks for the tulip report, Jes! Yes, I heard that they were just starting to bloom so, hopefully this rainy, cooler weather now won't last till the weekend.
    I had a great ride Arlington - Stanwood area on Saturday; couldn't get more perfect conditions and even spotted, then stopped to watch a newly born calf finish getting cleaned up by Mommy cow and stand on verrrrry wobbly legs! I think that the vet in you would've enjoyed it too!
    Keep that sunshine dance going will ya?!

    Oh... I love watching the babies try to stand. Was on a long walk last year and came across one. Had been a while since I got to see it.

    Holding out for sun... the paper didn't look promising -- as a matter of fact, it's supposed to be COLD that day. So plan ahead for warm dressing!

    Yeah, the weather doesn't just look "iffy" at this point but, with a high around the mid-40's, with accompanying winds, precip - it could well be 'yucky' too...here's what KomoTV says: "Saturday, we're expecting near record low MAX temperatures with Lowland temps 10-15 degrees below normal. With those cold low to mid-40 degree temps plus a lot of moisture, we may see a mix of showers, snow, and hail. Oh, and a chilly breeze."

    Sigh...hoping that it'll change, but we'd better be ready to reschedule, eh?

    Yeah, it's strange this year...however, the local Chamber says that: "4/15: The tulips are blooming! Check your tulip festival map ~ Fields 6,7,11,16,17,27,and 28 are starting to dazzle. If you don't have a map handy, these fields are located on La Conner-Whitney Rd, Mc Lean Rd, Calhoun Rd, and AvonAllen Rd."
    That's in the area that we're planning to ride, so I'm hoping for a bigtime weather improvement...
    Jes - get those happy feet going faster on the sunshine dance, willya?!
