    So sorry! But as sorry as I am, I do have to request that you don't send it this way .

    Crankin, she's getting her graduate degree at 10am. It's been a long time coming. She'll finally have some well-deserved free time to do what she loves--travel! When my mother got her bachelor's degree a few years ago, it was about the coldest May day imaginable with every type of winter precipitation coming down all morning. Most of the graduates got to sit under a tent, but since she was the valedictorian, she had to sit up front and brave the elements for two hours. Personally I think the valedictorian should have been allowed to enjoy the ceremony... I'm hoping for much better weather for you!

    Spokewench, I can't even imagine snow right now. I guess I can't really complain about a little rain!

    I hope to see you there, m. eliza. Maybe I should put a bike symbol on my cap?

    I am assuming the BOA pavilion is covered, at least, though the winds may be blowing in from the sides.

    I am sorry you had snow, Spokewrench. But, I have to say, I agree with SheFly. Don't send it here.

    I believe most of the Pavillion is covered, if not all of it. Hopefully you'll get a seat far enough away from the edges to avoid the bitter winds.

    In other news, I heard Sunday is supposed to be just "mostly cloudy," but until then, this is what my life has become...



    Sigh...

    This weather has been the pits! It has been much harder to get the motivation to go out and run lately b/c it's gray and depressing and cold rain is just icky--some sunshine would be much appreciated. I just hope we have a nice day next Saturday because moving in the rain would really stink...

    Although Sunday presented us with a day of "gray" it did NOT present us with rain Another friend and I rode to Pinkham Notch yesterday, and on the way back down to Gorham the clouds lifted to bright blue sky and tremendous views!! I was so excited!! Had a great view of Mt Washington and the surrounding peaks, which was a special treat. I only wish that I had not left the camera in the car

    Although today it's back on the trainer...
