        Had to meet my wife at my in-laws' place last night. Took advantage of the weather and brought the bike out. Finally joining in on the Sunset thread!

            Went early for Saturday morning breakfast, so could have something of a sunrise ride.

            Stopped at a couple places were have a view to the east so could expect a sunrize view.





            ANd then went through town, just to go by beach .... and surprized to see sunrise colors off to the west...

              Looks like another freighter's stack over the horizon.

                about 2/3rd the way from freighter to the pier....? I think that is a seagull with wings spread at an angle.....

                I framed pic so it does not include where I about got stuck and about lost it in the sand to get to that sidewalk.
                Nor did I include folks looking out the window of their camper/motorhomes at me at 7:40am wondering how some guy on motorcycle got in the campground.




                Notice anything about the pier....?

                    In low 40s at night recently.

                    Pier sturcture under renovation. Closed to walking till mid summer. CAtwalk removed.
                    Army Corps ENg stated was going to remove catwalk as no longer needed. Community group raised funds to have the catwalk moved inland, refrebrished and then put back after the pier work is done.

                      Michigan City lighthouse has a similar raised catwalk, and maybe 20 years ago did the same thing. I read that on a plaque they have there.
                      Must have been miserable to sit out there on duty in winter, back in the olden days

                        Another Saturday morining ride to breakfast, before sunrize.
                        Stopped at a couple places looking for sunrize.
                        Heavy clouds and something of a purple sunrise.

                        Was guys fishing there. Scheesch, man, they must have gotten up early, to go stand along side of bayou under a bridge, just to go fishing, on a cold and threatning rain morning.

                        Another place.

                        Looking out over the river.



                        Was drizzle rainiy after breakfast.

                          20161031_182844.jpgTwo disclaimers: 1) this was not a ride.
                          2) it is a picture of a picture.
                          In 2001 when I bought this house I had to fix it up to even live in it. One night while I was working on it I went outside and witnessed probably the most beautiful sunset I've ever seen.
                          Sorry it has nothing to do with bikes but it is a sunset.

                            Beautiful pic! I don't mind that your bike isn't in the pic. What say you, Glen? Thanks for sharing.
