It must really be Spring.  It's started.  And we won't sleep for weeks.  Last night, for the first time this year, we heard a couple of peepers in the pond.  We're doomed now – once you hear one, it isn't long before you hear hundreds.  Or thousands.  I'm off to the store now to purchase some industrial strength ear plugs.

Sunny and almost 60 degrees.  Feeling like Spring could really be here, I dusted off the Triumph, put the battery in, and it fired on the second kick.  Checked the oil, put air in the tires, made sure there weren't any bodily fluids rushing out (of the bike, that is.  Hey, this is a family blog…) and did a little more cleaning.  Then it was time for a ride.  Wow, it really survived hibernation for another season.  And it felt good to be back on two wheels!  Now I just need to get the Sprite dusted off…
