I hear calls for two assessments of cases coming in through the ER, so I mosey down stairs to see what's up and whether it pertains to me.
From across the room, I see the first dog and think: boy, he looks demented. Turns out he fell down the stairs a few days ago and hit his head and has been loopy ever since.
Then on the other side of the room, I see the other dog and think: boy, he looks wasted. Turns out he is, ate the owner's marijuana stash.

It is difficult to find a lot of climbing out here since we don't have long continuous stuff.

There's really no elevation changes in the cities unless you spend all day going in and out of the river valleys. Funny thing is that it's hillier than riding in the five boroughs in NYC.

That's basically what I do as you can see in that Strava link. I ride parallel to the rivers to take advantage of the hills. Either in the areas on that ride or across the Mississippi in western Wisconsin. South or west of me is flat so I use that for faster post work efforts.
