| rode some beautiful roads....along the ocean for quite a while at first. everywhere were beautiful dogwoods & lots of buttercups waving in the
breeze. plenty of other flowering shrubs & trees, too. what a beautiful day. well....discounting 50 mi into strong, gusty headwinds. (yes, all you bikers who exclaimed that i'd be riding the wrong way are right....at least for today.) |
| rode thru colonial williamsburg. much of the countryside we traversed today is filled with colonial history, of course....including several
plantations. i hadn't realized how huge they are. it was beautiful & interesting. |
| & then of course a bridge....a long bridge with 2 big sections of see-thru metal grates (one of my own personal favorite trip features). it was so
windy that we walked across (oh good...that makes the crossing that much slower!); the gusts were so strong that the heartier ones could easily have bounced us into passing vehicles.....especially phyllis, who is teensy. |
| joan & i just watched the weather. looks like tomorrow is gonna be nice....& less windy. we'll sure enjoy the less windy part. |
