When the temperature gets close to the freezing point and the sun is out–for a while, anyway–on a Friday in January, you’d better get outside. You’ll regret if you don’t, because you can be sure that the weather will soon be a whole lot colder.
So I went out for a walk around Wascana Lake. It was lovely, even though it clouded over later in the afternoon (the weather forecast is calling for freezing rain, which is my least favourite form of precipitation). Now, after walking 16 kilometres, I feel like I’ve earned my dinner.
If the weather holds, I might go for a similar walk tomorrow. It’s early enough in the semester that I can afford the time.
