I rode to forest park on thursday did a couple of laps around the park.
4 miles to the park then 8 miles per lap. What a great way to spend a
beautiful day off.

Your photos reminded me of what it was like to run around with an artists eye and a camera. I took pictures of what I thought would make a great painting; never one to try to capture the changing light; it changed faster than I could paint, and I don't have photographic memory.
Love your sense of humor too; I've always hated the compulsory 'about me' section; though as I built my web sites it did get me started on writing my memoirs. Yeah I'm old enough to qualify; I'll be 65 next month, and proud of it. God must still have something up his sleeve for me; it's a wonder I'm not six feet under yet.
But I'm getting away from the point, just wanted to let you know I liked your blog site.
