A warm breeze whisked by as the new bike and I navigated the path beside the river. An adventure that had begun as only a dream last year was being fulfilled. The unexpected warm fall weather had created a door of opportunity through which we could pass on this first of what we hope will be many biking excursions. Cruising past the sights of my childhood along the river brought back fond memories of times past and prompted reminders of the blessings of things present. As winter edges its way back into our presence I look forward to days ahead that provide other doors of opportunity for discovering more of the river trail. Every new day ushers in opportunities to discover the possibilities that may be uncovered in the moments provided. Today, gratitude is the cloak that wraps the gifts that are yet to be discovered.
