waiting for spring

This morning I got back on my bike again after a false start to the season a few weeks ago. I had been riding for 3 or 4 days, when the weather changed back to winter and at the same time I got a flat tire. So the bike went back down to the basement. But last night Magic Martin the bike mechanic fixed the flat and got me up and running again! So off I went this morning! On my way out, Echo was sitting happily in the garden sun, waiting for the tulips to bloom and the raspberries to appear on the canes. She's happy to wait there for a while.
