On Wednesday, May 11th, we drove from our home in Warren PA to Leeper PA, a distance of approximately 47 miles. Our destination was the Rail 66 Country Trail trailhead. We parked off Route 66 in the Car Mate parking lot next to the trail. From the Leeper trailhead we rode our bicycles, south, to […]

It has been 8 months since I last published a blog post for ”Bicycling the beauty around us”. Our last bicycle ride in 2021 was in September. So far this year we have bicycled in our neighborhood, and we rode our bicycles at Chincoteague National Wildlife Refuge on Assateague Island in Virginia. We bicycled a […]

Our wedding anniversary was this past Sunday, on September 26th. We decided to take an anniversary trip to Confluence PA, where we spent 3 nights at an Airbnb. We brought our bicycles with us. Around 10:00 am on Monday, September 27th, we left on a bicycle ride. Entry to the Great Allegheny Passage was a […]

We vacationed the week of June 25 through July 2 in Hudson, Ohio. We brought our bicycles with us, intending to bicycle the entire Ohio & Erie Canal Towpath Trail in Cuyahoga Valley National Park several times during the week. Because of extreme heat and high humidity and rain we ended up riding only a […]

Great photos, LInda. I love the compostion of the first photo. The fountain is beautiful. Great shot of your friends and the flowers are beautiful.
In my past, it was always nice to go for a ride and meet up with friends that also have a bike. That fountain in your town looks real nice to see. Your friends remind me of nice people to meet. May they ride safe. Even though I'm not much of a flower person, I still appreciate seeing Nature at it's beauty. Great Image.Sorry that your ride was ruined by the rain. Hope you and Bob had rain suits, which I'm sure that you had. The ole' saying goes “Real Tourers Do It in the Rain or Shine.”
It is so good that you got home before the rain got there. The partial evening sounds great. Music and friends. What a great combination.
That's a beautiful fountain. What a shame your evening was cut short by rain.
I am so drawn to those buildings who have a triangular shape to them. I've never been in one though – to see what they are like from the inside… I think I'll have to make a point to check them out more closely!
Great pictures! The fountain is really pretty!
Great portrait of your friends! Glad you didn't get wet.
Really good post!
I wish your visit had not been cut short…and I would like to see a better view of the building behind the fountain…though how you would get a better view is more than I know. I think I would just like to see it in person.
I LOVE the fountain and building photo! The flowers and the bikes work well together, too.
Am glad you are back Linda, as I always have beautiful photos to emulate. Until now, i still am battling with my blurry focus. I still don't know how to get the sharp focus like you have here. Lastly, my condolences for the passing of your cousin. She is now painless and with the Lord.
