    Yes, hang in there ladies! Some beautiful day is coming your way soon.

    I used to live in Chicago for 7 years and can totally relate to the hokey-pokey with the down comforter. Funny thing is now that I have been living in the Bay Area for 7 years, the down comforter is a permanent fixture on my bed (must be the lack of insulation in my house and that sneaky fog, or I've become a weather wimp!). Some days I actually do miss that crazy heat and humidity! Bummer we couldn't share all the rain we got here in NoCal.

    Here's to better weather!

    LL, this morning I woke up, sweaty under the flannel sheets, blanket, down comforter, and bedspread. I thought, "I've gotta get this down comforter off me"...and the Hokey Pokey started playing in my head!

    Lise, you're crackin' me up! I just got back from my week in Indy. Beautiful weather but I was sick all week with a sinus infection. I got back Sunday night, went to the walk in clinic for drugs Monday morning, went back home and slept and finally made it to work yesterday. Then, a funny thing happened - I GOT MY NEW TREK 2100 FROM DOC!!!! So I brought the purdy thang to work today and took it for a spin at lunch in balmy 63 degree weather with a good SW wind (I can not even describe the snot rocket problem I had with the wind and a sinus infection - unbeliveable!). Anyhoo, it handles well and is much smoother than my Terry although I don't like either saddles. I'll keep comparision riding and decide which one to keep. But at least the sun was shining and I got out to enjoy it if only for an hour....

    kiwi girl - yeah, this thread is kinda mean for all the Southern Hemisphere girlies, but spring took a long time to get here. Dead-arm me for my glee if you must.

    mtbdarby has Lava's sister!! (There's a sister in South Florida, too!)

    I hope you're as happy with your 2100 as I am with Lava. She's going to turn 4000 on Saturday!!
