ABOVE 50 AND IT AIN'T RAININ'

 Bob has always said, "If it's above 50 and it ain't rainin', I'm going.  That's the way it was tonight (Wednesday) as I departed Casey's as "the Lone Ranger". 

I headed west on 9 and then turned south on CR W60 (Old Stage) down to Yellow River Drive.  Just as I turned west again, I had to stop for two big flocks of turkeys running along the ditch.  I tried to get a photo of them but they scattered before I could get the camera out.  So while I was stopped, I decided to take a couple of shots of the colorful hillsides.

SOME MORE

I continued west on YRD to HWY 51 and turned south into Postville.  Passing through town, I turned onto HWY 52 and passed through Castalia and Ossian.  Before I reached Calmar, I decided to take Middle Calmar Road north to Decorah.  It had been a long time since I had traveled this road, but I do remember the striking scenery especially as you get closer to Decorah.  It's too bad the road is so rough that it takes away from the fun of riding it!

Middle Calmar took me into Decorah where I picked up HWY 9 and headed east back to Waukon.  I parked outside of City Club and noticed the temp on the bank clock was still 62 degrees.  I had 65 miles on the trike when I got off to go into the City Club.

CITY CLUB IS LIT UP

Above 50 and no rain, I'll do it every time!
