Gene--looks like some other planet! Maybe that's what happened--we have been transported to a parallel universe where it stays cold all of the time.

How do you know I did not just come back from Mars?

The lakefront for a few blocks south of Fullerton have these volcano shapes, like the one in the top photo. They make it easy to imagine being on another planet.

And, BTW, I finally rode today. You guys who have been riding this week must have been awfully lonely. On Milwaukee, between Elston and Kinzie, I saw two other cyclists. Then I did not see any others until I got to Dearborn.

Yesterday the ride home from work late last night was extra brutal (6 miles). This morning was pretty terrible too, but at least it can't get any worse... I hope.

Saw 10+ cyclists last night along Clark between Andersonville and downtown. I hadn't ridden more than a few blocks all week and was a little worried, but it ended up being surprisingly comfortable with the Moose Mitts and a wind-block balaclava.
