19°C, yowza... it's so warm you could be outside in a t-shirt (unlike in, say, July). I had an appointment on the other side of town today but I didn't mind at all, it was the most gorgeous bike ride. I just wish I'd brought my camera!
It can't be much longer before true November nastiness arrives, so I'm making as much as I can of this unexpected gift of awesome weather. Yesterday I went buildering at my favorite spot and managed to traverse the back side of the tower in one go. Yeah, baby! :) I worked on that bit for weeks. There's only one tiny window opening for the hands, the rest is all very narrow holds and you gotta study the wall for a bit to find places to put your feet... so different from climbing indoors. I wish there were more walls like that around here. Why does it have to be all red brick and plaster.
[eta: darn, shouldn't have written that. Now it's raining. The spell, it is broken.]
