The sun finally showed up this past weekend for the first time in three weeks! Fall is in the air and the leathers have come out with the falling temperatures. Friday was chilly with a frisky wind blowing the fallen leaves across the road. It's an interesting sight, the falling leaves and the second flush of wildflowers on the side of the road, thanks to the recent heavy rains. My new friend, Jackie and I scooted up the twisty and scenic 390 to LaGrange for some great Mexican food. It's was a great girl's day out.
Saturday was a lot warmer and an afternoon ride over to the Antique Rose Emporium escorted between two Harleys made it a treat. The two jokesters driving them made the day even more fun. Matt even got to go along riding pillion for the first time on a Harley.
If Friday was the "too cold" day, and Saturday was the "too hot" day, then Sunday was the "just right" day, if you're Goldilocks. The weather was perfect. I rode by myself through the Brazos River bottom and checked out the cotton crop, looks pretty good to me. Looks like one more picking and they'll be done. I'm sure they rain was too late for the corn though.
I met up with my riding buddy Steve, and we went on a spirited ride through the Navasota bottom land and finally hung it up after I turned over 9,000 miles on the bike.
Great weather, great new friends, great riding, as usual, can't wait to do it again!
