Plans change
I was headed up into the forest to do some trail work, but when I went out to go, Barry pulled in with his truck.
That meant we were going for a bike ride up into the forest instead which was actually good as it gives me a break from the trail work, which is a bit easier on my body.
Trail cam
I wanted to move one of the trail cams, so we went by and picked it up and put it on the big tree on the left to watch the pond.
Brush trimming
We rode around a bit then stopped here to trim some brush off the road, mostly the stuff that can hit you in the face.
Barry’s taking care of the brush up there.
Drink
We rode around some more, then headed to this spring for a drink of water. We never seem to sit in those chairs so I need to move them to another place where they’ll get used.
Goat lady
We decided to do something different today and rode on over to another neighbor’s where we don’t go too often. We ran into the goat lady and had a nice chat with her. She has over 200 goats she raises and they were making a lot of noise down below where we were talking with her as it’s mating time for them.
We continued down the road from her place and stopped at this gate to look around a bit.
Wild turkeys
Barry says there’s some turkeys over there. Here’s a few of them as they sneaked through the trees.
From three we rode back up the hill to my cousin’s place and Barry says, lets go see if we can make it down to the creek.
We made it a short distance before the downed trees turned us back in this spot.
Time for a break so we headed for the ridge top. On the way up a steep part one of my work gloves jumped out of my basket. I couldn’t hold the bike on the steep hill to pick it up, so had to leave it for a bit.
Break time
We make it to the ridge top for a break.
We always take a good break in this spot at the top.
When we left there, we rode back down the hill where I lost my glove and retrieved it and did some more riding around, then headed for home.
Shooting the bull
I was going to go back into the forest and do some trail work, but instead, Tom showed up and we sat around and shot the bull until after five. Too late to do any more work for the day.
This was our sky today. Not very exciting, but I like blue just fine.
I knew I was getting some packages today, so I checked the mail box and found these two boxes. One box to change internet providers and the other is a cam I hook to my computer to watch stuff around the yard, mostly at night.
Nice day.
