February. 

It is usually frozen and snowy.

Yet, Licking County has lived under a clear sky and lots of sun. 

Although I have worries that may arise from this weather, I have taken this time to be outside, walking around the Village of Granville. 

On my last walk, I spotted an almost mythical sight—a tandem bike resting on the porch of this beautiful lime-green home. 

Golden hour was right around the corner, and the smooth lap siding basked in the warm glow. I imagined all the rides taking place when they typically would not and the time spent between the three people who guide it.
