All the glute-nursing worked yesterday and while I’m not quite right I noted that a motorcycle ride would be very nice. And so we looped round into town and took a road we never had before, Trinity Dam Boulevard, which as the name suggests skirts the reservoir, passes the dam, and affords rather pretty views. See?

There’s a tiny bit of snow on top of those mountains. Ruh-roh.

The fall colors are amazing. We lack the reds, mostly, of the east coast, but there were some pink trees. Most of them are a really sweet, golden yellow and when they catch the sun they seem to go. If we have a sunny day—today was overcast—I’ll have to do out and see what I can find. It’s nice to live in the general vicinity of lots of mixed forest.

I feel much better now.
