Sunny Monday

Brian and I are taking today off, extending the holiday. While he insists on returning to work tomorrow, I decided to make this a five-day weekend and take leave. It's good to have a day to yourself. 

I got up at the normal time today and rode 43 miles. Luckily, the rain stayed south of us yesterday, so it was dry. Aside from the inevitable rabbits, I saw no wildlife. I was surprised that I didn't encounter any commuters during my last  few miles, but maybe other people decided to extend the weekend, too. Gorgeous sunrise, particularly since it was clear and the stars were so bright. 

Between the bike ride and going to the pool, I walked Fiona and Maeve, read some more of my new Laura Lippman book, and took a nice nap!  The last helped me re-engergize for my time swimming. What a nice day for it, mostly sunny, warming up. It was kind of chilly in the pool, probably because yesterday and last night were not July warm. So happy it wasn't crowded.  I swam 70 laps, just a smidge over an hour. Brian went in the deep end and had a good time, too.
