      I missed sunset and it's closer to midnight, but tonight's bright moon over the pond will do nicely on a dark back road. This stretch of road had white and yellow lines, but most of the ride was dark blacktop and nothing to guide you. Got to watch out for those buggers called white tailed deer that wonder in your path on these warm nights.

        It stopped raining long enough to go for a ride last night. I rode out to Ben's for dinner, then stopped at the Berlin Lake Causeway. With the overcast sky and the sun trying to peak through it made for some nice pictures. It was very warm and humid, a beautiful evening.

            Went to Australia for a while, this was my favorite sky. I wasn't riding but was thinking of this thread.

                I've used this backdrop in the past for bike pics. I like the building and Pine tree.

                    Those manual powered things are good for staying in shape.

                          I realized that that today marks 15 years to the date since I've seen the sun rise over the ocean. On that day it was a moment of contemplation of life and its changes as our son was to be born the next day. 15 YEARS! It sure does fly on by.....the GS has been a constant...

                                Not really a sunset, but somewhat.....

                                Overcast afternoon.

                                We are mourning the end of summer, this Labor Day, but celebrated the end of tourist season by going for a walk on the boardwalk along the channel (not crowded like had been all summer).
