So it rained today. You may have noticed it. It poured down buckets for about three hours, giving me ample time to reconsider every decision that had led me to that point and weep for all that I had ever loved and lost, starting with my childhood gerbil, Kilroy (may he rest in peace).
Cycling blues are real, folks. That's why it's important to ride with a buddy. My riding buddy today was a hilarious and irreverent woman named Nat. While I was using the rain to mask my tears, she was ranking the people who passed us according to the attractiveness of their behinds to make me laugh.
We covered a lot of ground today, mostly through really pretty farm country that I couldn't see for the rain. And then, finally, the sun came out as we rolled through Prince Edward County. We cycled through Picton and took the little ferry across to Adolphustown. We stopped at the Picton LCBO first, which is super apparent to me right now when a significant number of people are having trouble with the concept of quiet hour. Whatever, I have earplugs and we've all earned it.
PS. Talent night was tonight and it did not disappoint!
An ongoing amazing story. After the rain comes the sun. And may your clothes become dry and comfy.
