Leap Day Eve
28 Feb 2024 Meadowlark Trail Tomorrow is leap day, a rare thing, less frequent than a blue moon.
The thermometer claimed it was warm (54℉). However, the wind was there, and so our fearless adventurers donned their layers, only to discover that actually, the wind wasn’t much of an issue. Hikers, cyclists, and joggers galavanted past in shorts and t-shirts.
Well humph. S and D would rather be warm than wind-chilled.
A horned lark was observed, hopping around the prairie dogs. A contrail slithered overhead, followed by its shadow.
S and D rested at the turnaround point, and again at the bench. A bicyclist did some wheelies, not unlike a prairie dog on wheels. Mammals, you know: always cavorting.
Probably because it’s another successful BNO.
