As you can see, there has been almost NO RIDES since the 3rd. of January! It's been COLD, WINDY and at times several inches of SNOW! Sadly, we had very important Medical appointments on Thursday, January 16. Of course, it was the WARMEST day of that week, we did get a short FOOD RUN ride in on Wednesday, January 15th! It was still only 40 F with chilly breezes, but it was sunny, so we headed up the Rock Island Trail over to the Walmart Market Place off of Union Blvd. Got a full load of food and household supplies as by Friday night the coldest air from Canada brought on the "Polar Plunge"!! It's only 12 F with a windchill in the -4 F temp and 2 inches of SNOW outside our living room window!
This will continue with more snow possible Sunday night into Monday morning and to be honest the temps won't get high enough to do any melting of snow till Tuesday so we HOPE the area trails and roads might be clear enough to ride by NEXT Friday, January 24th.!! We did a couple of walks over to the Good Neighbors Meeting House for HOT Tea's and one walk to Safeway for a few items the Market Place doesn't stock but the Food Run was the last ride, cabin fever is going to be a "Real Problem" by next Friday, ARRUGH!
Unloaded the trailer after the FOOD RUN ride to the Walmart Market Place on Union Blvd, just off the Rock Island Trail
Here is the "RIG" or how my trike goes from, " sport car to pick-up truck" so we can get food and household supplies! My trike is called: Scrappy, the trailer is called: Tugger!
Well, that's all I have till the winter weather decides to quit being so mean and onery in nature, LOL! If your in the Polar Plunge with us, STAY WARM!
