In Like A Lion

We had some crazy weather here this last week. Wednesday it was gorgeous. 70 degrees, sunny, light breeze. Almost all of the daffodyls in our back yard are in bloom, and they're beautiful!

Well, Matthew woke up on Thursday and said, "It's March!" and I said, "Do you think it will be 'in like a lion' or 'in like a lamb?'" As Matthew was leaving for work, he opened the door and said, "It's definitely 'in like a lion.'" Wind, rain,the works. It rained most of the day. They actually closed the public schools at 1:00 because of several tornado watches down the mountain.

I rode my bike home after my classes (the peak of the storms had passed by then) but it was still raining very hard. Thanks to Mom and Dad for the rain gear they got me! It worked really well! My shoes, however, were just full of water. I don't think my shoes have been that wet since I went on back-to-back water rides at Great America when I was a kid! It was great fun, expecially since it was still relatively warm outside (60ish) and I love rain, especially if I'm just going home so I can towel off and change into pajamas!

Yeah, I've been really lucky. I've only asked for rides a few times this year because of weather. I don't ride if it's to close to freezing. Layers are my friend! :)
