august bicycle overnight tour

morning, leaving camp


We got lucky and got our overnight bicycle trip in before the impressive thunder and lightening storm passed our island. Last year, we weren't so lucky and rode the whole way back in the rain. That's o.k. I'm always happiest when we're on a bike tour.

What I like most about riding is how my mind clears, especially, on the long rides. Knowing I need to ride 35 miles or more to my destination, leaves me thinking more about just pedaling. All my worries slough off with each mile.

Thanks for sharing the peacefulness you've found. It does feel good to get lost doing something we love.

bird watching and staying home for the summer

Married Shadows

My husband and I haven't had a T.V. for the last 15 years, maybe more, so we often go to see movies at the Cinema. The last couple of ones that I've enjoyed have been Transformers II and Terminator IV. Two more of my favorites are Slumdog Millionare and Milk. These latter two were well done movies from all angles (acting, script, cinematography). This is us after an afternoon at the movies and eating out. We had just come from Starbucks and were heading to the train station. For more shadow shots and to learn how to join this Meme, please visit Hey Harriet's blog .
