After two days too frosty and windy to ride, today was no less windy, but warm enough to handle it. It was about 45°F (7C) with stiff breezes from the northwest, carrying air that was cooler than the ambient temperatures indicated.
I went only as far as Barnes Park to look at Soldier Creek. It was pretty clear today, as visible in the first shot. For the second shot I clambered down the steep bank to that big flat stone formation that creates a small fall in the creek.
As previously noted, most of the time I ride now I’m just looking for a suitable prayer chapel for the day. This spot in Pecan Park called to me. I’m working over a couple of prayer requests from our online parish. At least my head is no longer exploding with stuff. But I still have no great interest in long challenging rides. I’m much more interested in quiet places and a little exercise.
Isn’t it amazing how much peace you can feel when natural water is around!? Whenever I go back in my yard and sit by the creek, it is like all tension and worry slough off and I feel refreshed again. I guess that is where my little chapel is! Tee hee
