A nice morning before the temperature drops off a cliff.
January 16, 2026 at 2:32 PM
It was dark at the start of my run, but I got a pretty blue sky to end it

Colder this morning. Quite dark. Very windy. Still worth it.

An early start on a surprisingly comfortable morning.

A pretty pre-sunrise morning to start the week.

An amazing start to the last day in New Orleans. Until next time, Crescent City. #AALS2026

How it began; how it finished. The days are finally getting longer again!

It felt as cold as it looks. Happy Friday!
December 19, 2025 at 2:01 PM
Another pretty sunrise and a remarkably comfortable 42°.
December 18, 2025 at 2:03 PM
A pretty sunrise started as I finished. I’m about ready for the days to start getting longer.

The sky was dark, but the moon was bright.

A gorgeous morning to start the week.

Happy Friday!

I forgot to post yesterday, so that’s the picture in the left. Sustained 30-mph winds on trash/recycling day knocked everyone’s bins over. This morning is calmer and cooler.

A dark and pretty start to what promises to be a lovely day.

I had to clean up the walk before heading out. Not much snow, but I didn’t want it to turn to ice.
December 8, 2025 at 2:00 PM
It was warmer (24°) but, beyond my block and a couple of others, the sidewalks remain a mess. It was still good to get out, even though it meant a lot of walking.

Back to the rower. These are February temperatures.
December 4, 2025 at 2:19 PM
I was correct that it was warmer than the last several days. I was incorrect in assuming that most of the sidewalks would be clear.
December 3, 2025 at 2:19 PM
Another 11° morning with some slippery walkways, so I went back to the rower. A little slower today, but it still happened.
December 2, 2025 at 1:40 PM
While we get more snow, I decided to row (my #5K)

Happy Thanksgiving!

At 27°, it is still pretty, but also pretty cold.
