Very mild winters' day here. Mixed snow with a little rain. Mostly snow. Very little rain. Not cold at all. Did a hike this evening, after work. After the hike, into the subway to get home. I don't know why, but I find it very amusing to stand in the subway, waiting for the train, water dripping from my coat, hair drenched and looking like I just came from? Rest of the subway riders were all relatively dry, not having walked outside for the past two hours. They all walk by but can help but look. Stare really. Confused questions in their eyes. I find it amusing, but I don't know why. Yes, I do need to find better ways to amuse myself.
The hike was good. 10 to 11 kms. Did the whole thing in 2.25 hours. Not a bad pace at all. Very small group tonight. Only 3 of us to start, and one dropped out half way. Really neat walk on a winters night with fresh snow. Down an old train line and then a loop through the ravines.

Very quiet, hardly any people tonight. Didn't even need a flashlight as the new snow reflected all the light needed. Winter. It's far more tolerable if you get outside and do things in it.

Okay. So, if I were standing on the platform with you and I saw you looked like a drowned rat, I would be compelled to say something. You know, along the lines of "Nice day, eh?"

Ah, yes, Hanes...LOL
Having lived in Holland nobody stares at somebody being wet as it rains 6 months a year over there.
How lovely to walk in the snow We get her 1 day a year if we are lucky
