READIN

Jeremy's journal

Somehow, Cleveland has survived, with her gray banner unfurled -- the banner of Archangelsk and Detroit, of Kharkov and Liverpool -- the banner of men and women who would settle the most ignominious parts of the earth, and there, with the hubris born neither of faith nor ideology but biology and longing, bring into the world their whimpering replacements.

Today, a lovely day, is the occasion for our first family bike ride (longer than around the block) of the season. We are riding to Michele's house in Maplewood for Sylvia's play group and back, a total of about 5 miles.

Update: The ride was a success -- this is the furthest Sylvia has ever ridden by a multiple of 2 or so, she did a lot of coasting but gave me a hand on the uphills (which I could not have managed without her pedalling) and some of the straightaways (I could definitely feel the reduction in effort when she started pedalling). Her play group friends were interested in the tandem trailer and a big occasion was made of us mounting and riding away -- Ella got a similar trailer recently but so far has been scared to actually get on it, so she was particularly interested.
