Changing Seasons

Fall has been really nice - until late this week. Now the wind is howling and rain is common. The high temperature was only in the 40s. So, it is a good time to reflect on the nice days of last weekend.

We took the pop-up and the bikes to Lewis and Clark State Park just west of Yankton, South Dakota Saturday afternoon. Unlike summer weekends, the park was quiet and the bike paths almost empty. With leaves turning, crops ready for harvest, and blue skies - it was feast for the eyes. The temperatures were perfect for cycling, with the increasing winds on Sunday the only downside. Here are some photos...


Note Gromit's ears. It was windy!
John's latest bike - a Lightning P-38 clone.
Marilyn - is pink as visible as day-glo green?
