What a lovely area! You're so lucky that you have such a beautiful area to bike so close to where you live. Here, it's pretty suburban, with few sidewalks and lots of roads with heavy, fast moving traffic--so not very friendly to pedestrians or bikers.
I'm envious that you were able to spend so much time outside. I enjoyed the view from our balcony, which is lovely--but we spent the whole weekend organizing our bookshelves (a Herculean task, sigh) because books had gotten completely out of control--we had books everywhere. Books stacked up in front of the shelved books because that's where they belonged, but there was no room left to shelve them. Books piled on the tops of filing cabinets, the desk, and on the guest bed, because we had run out of space to stack them in front of the books on the appropriate shelves. Ai Ai Ai. In 5 years,we went from having a little room to spare on our shelving--which we have a lot of--to having 5 boxes of books to go into storage, another 2 boxes worth we're getting rid of, and still more books than we really have space for. And my original goal was to actually organize the office itself--that is, the closet, the desk, and the stuff in boxes on the floor, but the books took too long. Next weekend will be more of the same, only this time going through the stuff in storage so that we have room for all the stuff we now need to put into storage. *Wah*
I wanna be outside.
(I'm also envious that you have a Wii. I want one, badly. But oh well, hopefully we'll be able to get one fairly soon anyway....)
