When the sun comes out to play

I feel like I haven't done a good enough job of bragging about how amazing the weather here has been this spring. I suspect that this is partially because I haven't wanted to jinx it.

BUT! The weather! Oh jeeze! It's been sunny and warm and almost like a normal place. Yesterday it was above 90, and I got to ride my bike around in the hot sun and then buy fancy bike parts for my fancy bike:

Those are Dura Ace 7700 brakes, along with both front and rear derailleurs. It's a high-end groupset that debuted in 1997. I bought them to put on the super shiny 1994 Eddy Merckx Strada OS that Trish got me for my birthday because she is seriously the most amazing person to ever live.

Other excellent things that have happened:

Camping



Trip to the coast



Baby rats!

Yay!
