It was a little hot, with a little wind, but the wind was cool. And towards the middle of the ride the clouds covered the sun a bit so it ended up being a very enjoyable ride. As I rode up to the gear art were my bike is parked, a happy little mocking bird had caught a huge unhappy caterpillar.
Off I go with my white strip across my forehead. Its a Velo strip, it keep the sweat out of my eyes and it really works. Going on the flats I don't have to worry about sweat, but when I do climbing that's when it becomes a problem.
Traces of the Wild flower.
Wildflower with lot's of little bugs calling it home.
It's a weed. It's a lovely weed at that. They usually grow in a small cluster all by them selves. With a few other around. Yup! It's called a Mullein. This is a pant with some interesting history.

On the way back home I rode slowly down the bike path and passed a family with two kids, the boy looked about 6 and the girl about 2. I had some fun. I told him that I was the cookie monsters wife and I gave his parents permission to get him and his sister a cookie today. OMG! The look on his face was priceless and his parents got a good laugh out of it. And on that note they were off to get a cookie. LOL Mission accomplished. No child left uncookied.
Ahhh I was gunning for 30mph. I'll get there again. Even if it's only for a couple of seconds.
Goat cheese on a cracker. Yummy.
