What did you do on MLK Day?
 

Did you work, do chores around the house or ride a bike?

I read a portion of his 1956 speech in Buffalo. It was long. "If you can't be a highway, be a trail. If you can't be a tree, be a bush. If you sweep floors, sweep them the way Michel Angelo paints a gold street." It was intense. Quite inspiring.

Oh ya, and I cleaned my bike.

I went to the gym and lifted heavy things.

Sinus surgery.

Replaced brake lines in my plow truck and did a little XC skiing.

Smoked pork & chilled on the back porch with a barrel of heat & fermented melon.

Had to work.

Walked in the largest MLK Day march in the US, again.

I had a dream...

Nothing, after I fed my cats.

I had to work but was able to ride home under clear skies with crosswinds. Oh I found a makeup bag with vaping stuff inside on the side of the road. I hung it on a fence post.

Rode my bike, including a couple of 3 mile climbs into 20 mph headwinds, and appreciated how easy I've got it compared with some folks. Today. Subject to change at whim and anxiety attack.

Before the Kale-O-fornians started to move to Idaho and building houses like Mormons pop out kids (kidding, originally from CA myself), my salad here was the smell of mint, strawberries and onions.

PT and then work. With a sub-zero windchill pretty much all day, I thought it too cold to ride.

12 miles in the local woods, and found Bigfoot's lair. 6 degrees at the start, going up to 10. Went to work later.

Below freezing all day here so I chose to work and ride another day.
Best use of the MLK dream speech in a song (2:25) I could have found a music thread for this and didn't think about it....day late

I usually take a ride, but it never got over 50 here and that's too cold for me. So I watched the races from Santa Anita instead.

I drove to my workplace and retrieved what was left of my winter mountain bike after someone had stolen the wheel set, probably to get the studded tires. Was a long walk home on Friday.

Crawled in the dirt, working on replacing the rusted-out transmission cooler lines on our car - Still working on it today .......

It was one degree when I got up and about, it got up to 17 or 18, so I didn't ride! I shoveled some snow "paths" in the lawn so our chihuahua's could (hopefully) find a spot to do their "business". Then came in, filled up 2 buckets of hot water (to put into outside water buckets) and headed back out to let the horse out into the field, give him some sweet feed and hay, and clean up his stall and pen. Came back in and practiced some guitar, watched some shows I had recorded. Played some on the internet forums I visit which pertain to my hobbies. Retired, so during the winter months, my routine doesn't vary a lot.

I applied to jobs in other countries, tried to ride my bike (road conditions + wind = bad), and practiced drums.

Nice one. I found my Anti-Flag t-shirt in the basement the other day.
