Got to get back on the bike!

 It's been a rough couple of weeks.  I have had a project where I needed
to carry computer stuff, so I couldn't ride to my customer's site.  
Weekends were family obligations where we were either out of town or
had to entertain, although I WAS able to indulge in one of my other
passions last weekend: cooking on the grill (smoked a nice Boston Butt
last Saturday).

The wife won't ride with me over 20 miles and I need a good 500+ mile
stress relief weekend.  My sister-in-law wants to get together Saturday
night for dinner, but I'm thinking 3 days in the mountains.  I'm asking
anyone who understands to pray Saturday dinner falls through.

Which is coming soon, especially around here (Vancouver, BC). We've had
our usual First Storm of Fall, meaning that we're past the hottest of
the hot season and from now on its a steady sinusoidal descent into
Winter, and I'm starting to feel like this:

   The Water Rat was restless, and he did not exactly know why. To all
   appearance the summer's pomp was still at fullest height, and although
   in the tilled acres green had given way to gold, though rowans were
   reddening, and the woods were dashed here and there with a tawny
   fierceness, yet light and warmth and colour were still present in
   undiminished measure, clean of any chilly premonitions of the passing
   year. But the constant chorus of the orchards and hedges had shrunk
   to a casual evensong from a few yet unwearied performers; the robin
   was beginning to assert himself once more; and there was a feeling
   in the air of change and departure.
