Two mummified and tattered woodchucks, one near the university and the other across the river from the paper mill.  Also a squashed muskrat in the gutter on North Main.

Partly cloudy, little wind, temperatures in the upper 60s F, so I dragged my sorry butt and bicycle upriver.  Crossed the Temporary Bridge O' Doom* without mishap and pedaled down the other side of the river.  Lupines!  Purple and pink and a few white lupines, yellow hawkweed, wild daisies, vetch, a patch or two of butter-and-eggs.  The paper mill just restarted pulping operations, giving me a good bracing whiff of sulfur to clear my lungs of all that nasty North Woods spruce pitch and oxygen.

I shall now revert to a lazy bum for the rest of the day.

26.59 miles, 1:58:50

*Not to be confused with Brigadoon, or I would have noticed a century's gap in posting dates on Live Journal.
