I was awakened by an unusual noise early this morning: water dripping. A nice band of showers swept through late last night/early this morning. It was a healthy does of rain, enough that I did not have to get up and water this morning before going to work. However, it also rained enough that I decided to not ride my bike into work. I thought I may have wussed out a little bit as I drove in on a dry freeway, but my bike does not have fenders and my latest look at the weather radar shows that more showers are on their way. The Channel 8 weatherman blew that forecast. He stated that the first band of clouds would not have any rain and if we got any at all it would come early this evening.
Oh well, it all added up to my being able to sleep in a bit longer this morning and that was welcome. I did get some good hoeing and hand weeding in last night, working until after 8 pm. That left us pondering what to do about dinner at such a late time. So we punted and went over to a wonderful little restaurant on SE Belmont, Wild Abandon. We picked that particular place because they were participating in Bites for Rights, a benefit for Basic Rights of Oregon ("BRO"). We each had an appetizer and some wine and some of that money went to BRO. The food was fantastic and their prices are very reasonable. I strongly recommend this place.
