My New Ride
My New Bike!!! I am pretty much in love/obsessed.
Jed likes to ride fast!
Just look at that funny toothy grin!
It's still pretty cool outside, so we put Jed in his rhino suit when we go out.

When I said that it has rained a lot here, I don’t think I was descriptive enough. We have had more rain this spring than at any time in recorded history. It’s been miserably ridiculous. Unfortunately, the rain has caused some serious effects: Lake Champlain is at its highest level; it’s flooding. Many homes and roads along the lake are under water.
Well, it rained all last week but the weekend turned out to be beautiful! So last Saturday we got together with a few friends for an afternoon ride along the lake shore to enjoy the weather and to check out the flooding. We rode all the way down to the beach at Point au Roche! The round trip took us about four hours—we stopped a lot. It’s a good thing Anna brought a big bag of goldfish to help sustain us! (Anna was also smart enough to bring her camera.)
Way cool, right?

The beach at Point au Roche. Wait... what beach? Crazy!

I arrived home sore and exhausted. However, the ride was sooo much fun! Thanks for inviting us along, Jordi. We had a fabulous afternoon!
Thats sad that people are getting flooded out. Looks like you guys had a fun bike ride though!
ReplyDeleteCool! That looks like so much fun! Jed looks like he is having the time of his life! So sad about the flooding though.
ReplyDeleteThat looks like SO much fun! I think I might have to give bikes another try. I love Jed's toothy grin! He is such a doll! I miss you SO much I wish we lived closer!
ReplyDeleteThat sounds like a lot of work and a lot of fun. It's crazy how everything is flooding, but it sure looks cool.
