Ahh Spring!

[Anelia]

Yeah, that's right
Yesterday and the day before I did my first mountain bike rides and the conditions are just perfect. I expected mud from the thousands of snow days but it seems that the wind had dried everything. I'm so happy!

first commutes home of the season without gloves or my bike-lights (still too dark and cold in the morning)

Also that bad bout of spring-fever where I fell in love a single speed conversion and brought it home.

We have daffodils and then snow. Seems about normal for Salt Lake City.

I'm pretty sure we skipped winter AND spring here, and have moved directly to summer (80 yesterday, 85 today and tomorrow). I was out until after dark on the bike last night in shorts and short-slevved jersey. Heading into the woods tonight, and will be covered in Deep Woods Off - the ticks and mosquitoes are already a menace.

Yes, please use the DEET. I was hiking with one of my clients in Carlisle late on Monday and despite my long pants, changing immediately when I got home, and inspecting myself, I found what I think was a tic on me when I woke up yesterday. I got it off and decided, that since it was less than 24 hours, I was not going to get the antibiotics, since I can't take the symptoms that would cause, especially if for nothing. Watching for any symptoms, but I am erring on the side of caution.
