"Seemed a bit cold and damp last Wednesday evening so we didn't ride or hear of anybody else that did, either. At about 6:30, I ended up putting on my long johns and winter coat and heading up to 'Fields of Faith' where I sat covered with a couple more Indian blankets.
I was the lone rider on this comfortably quiet 59 degree evening. Chuckles was on ambulance call so I put him on photo duty as I prepared to depart Casey's. I headed out Elon to Lansing/Harpers Rd, took Lafayette Ridge across to Great River Road then up to Lansing where I stopped to see the wonderful progress on the new visitor center and to take a peek at the creek before taking Hwy 9 back to Waukon. Turned over about 40 miles and the sun may have set on my Wednesday night rides for the season."
Here's some photos of what may well be the last Wednesday night ride of the season.

| WOW!!! THANKS--THANKS A LOT I want to thank everyone in WNR who has called and even sent cards wishing me well after my knee replacement surgery on the 11th. Also, many of you have offered help if I need it. I really appreciate that, and I may have to take some of you up on your offers. In the meantime, things are progressing surely but slowly so it's going to be a while before I throw a leg over the Wing again. It looks like there is some nice fall weather coming yet, so I hope the WRN can get some good rides in yet, especially with the fall colors My next riding will probably be in Florida in February. The hospital sent a whole bag of "goodies" home with me. In the bag was a set of ear plugs! So far I haven't found a use for them. But as time goes on, I'm sure Julie will! |
