Taking A Bath

Just got back from a summer vacation trip. Visit family, do some chores, ride bike, take a few photos, etc.

Weather was all over the place. From beastly hot and humid to stormy to almost cool. Typical northern plains summer weather.

Took my old (like 30 yrs old) mountain bike to do some riding with my brother. My trip could be divided up into 4 major legs. And on every leg of the trip, I got rained on quite extensively. As my bike was in the bed of my pickup, it got to take a bath. Four times! I covered the seat once, and took it off once. Because I just knew it was going to get soaked. Again. And it did!

Clouds, rain, rain, clouds. But, the clouds were pretty cool looking!

A change of pace. A shot of fire! Helping dad burn piles of old tree limbs and yard debris. Something he occupies a lot of his summer time with.

Here's OB (Old Blue - my brother's old Trek MTB) and ROB (Really Old Blue - my 30 yr old Supergo MTB. The one that got plenty of free washes this trip) back at Urtle Tate for some trail riding. Discovered that there are several new recently finished trails, along with some others still being put in. Very nice!

And on my way back home, more clouds, more rain! Pretty good trip overall though, had a good visit.
