Back on the bike

We're back to our loveliest summer tradition--the after-dinner bike ride down our country road. The blackberries are nowhere near ready yet, but every ride we talk about how we'll pick them when they're ripe.

There are lots of opportunities to get off the bike when we ride:

To show off road rash.

To get a boost above the tall grass.

To show Dad the geocache we found in the crook of this tree. It's a plastic severed foot--it had me a little nervous the first time I spotted it.

The shadows are getting long. It's time to head home.

One last look at that view. What a beaut!
