Happy First Day of Autumn!!
|
|
|
|
Today we did a bike ride in Chester County –
about an hour from Ivyland.
The “real” ride was actually Sunday but we,
due to some miscommunication, ended up
doing the ride on Saturday (thus saving $80)
in registration fees….
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Victory Brewery at 8 in the morning………
|
|
|
|
they put us on a recreation path to warm our
legs up before the hills…. and there WERE hills….
|
|
|
|
Michael & Mike fixed my flat tire.
the first & only flat tire of the day – mine!
3 miles into the ride.
I don’t know why this keeps happening!
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Michael figuring out the next few turns
|
|
|
|
|
here comes the other Michael
|
|
|
|
|
we saw a little horse show – it was cute
|
|
|
|
stopped at St Peter’s Bakery for tasty treats –
I should have gotten pictures of those –
I forgot!
|
|
|
|
there was a scenic overlook that was gorgeous —
but it seems my camera was sweaty & I didn’t
notice until now that the photos were slightly
blurred. Too bad bc it was such nice scenery.
|
|
|
|
I ended up with 54 miles on my odometer
Mike’s said 52. I’ll go with mine.
|
|
|
|
it was a good ride, very challenging –
AND I did it……
|
|
|
|
|
stopped in at Victory for a beer & a snack
|
|
|
|
|
CHEERS the Michael’s — well done!
|
|
|
|
I always opt for the sampler —
remember, I can’t drink a whole beer –
I just like to taste them!
|
|
|
|
I drink because I enjoy the taste of beer
|
|
|
|
they fill up your growlers here & it’s like
the growler gets to go on a ride as
it gets filled up
|
|
|
|
one more quick stop before heading home –
The Iron Abbey is perpetually packed —
unless you go on a Saturday afternoon at 4pm
|

Far from Home
~the adventures of Yellow Dog
When we got home we were pretty tired.
It was a long day. I ended up watching a movie,
something I very rarely do.
I recorded this back in January & figured
NOW was a good time to watch it.
I liked the movie especially with
the dog’s name being YELLOW (my favorite color)
