Today Delycia was still down with the "flu". She did show signs of improvement -- some small bites of food now and then, and some strolls outside in the morning and afternoon -- but now, in the evening, she's slowly fading off to an early sleep. We saw the doctor today, and he was reassuring, but said to see how it goes over the next few days and then check with him. 

I went for a quick and windy bike ride this afternoon, on our usual route down Lantern Hill Road. I once again misjudged the weather and the wind, and felt almost frosty and very much worked over by the wind. But ... I loved being on two wheels outside along these quiet country roads. 

A stop on my ride ... the Mystic River from Old Mystic

Later, I had tea at McQuades with Charlie Hildreth, who is fast becoming a good friend.
