4th of July ride
I rode out the Mad River boat launch in the morning.
The river was smooth as glass, perfect for a kayak or canoe.
This beautiful canoe had been around for decades. The guy in the photo restored her. I helped carry her back to a nearby truck.
On national holidays the most famous places are always crowded. This place is far from the highest peak, lowest valley or biggest waterfall. But a river runs through it.
A few hundred yards to the west, the destination for the Mad River——and all rivers.

Same to you, Meli. We had 18 people over that night for a 4th of July BBQ, so the ride was my only relaxation that day!
ReplyDeleteCombining alcohol and explosives, the 4th of July doesn't doesn't always bring out the best in American life, but this time it was different. Good food, good friends and a bike ride made the difference.
