Looking At Spring
#1

Weather was perfect today, about 68F and clear blue skies. Starting to look and feel like spring here; trees are pollenating which means wiping the NC down before heading out. Farmers fields are green with winter rye, sweet onions and wheat, all will be harvested next month and the aroma of onions will be everywhere. Took some dirt roads, most were well graded but a few sandy sections that the NC took in stride. Rode the loop around Lake Lindsey Grace and took a few pics at the boat landing there. Took the long way home, Sparky had a pot of hot coffee waiting for me. Life is good.

I thought of you, Ferret, as, vicariously, I inhaled the aroma of onions. Big Grin
