Runner!

 A few weeks ago, Syl mentioned she'd like to be more active. So we went out and got her some new running shoes. That weekend we did 2.5 miles, with several walking stops. 

Flash forward three weeks to Saturday, and we did a full 6.2 miles together, without a single stop. She even had gas in the tank for a sprint up the driveway at the end. I think we may have a new running pal on our hands!






At the 5 mile mark.



Protein shakes!



A particularly good year for foliage

 I guess the super-dry summer had one good consequence. The leaves this year have been outstanding.








Syl did a painting of this scene, for Aunt Mary, who has been in a rehab center since breaking her hip a few weeks ago. I think she is going to like it.





Sunday was in the mid 60s, so we pushed the season and did a (last?) shorts and tees bike ride to our favorite bakery for lunch.







The foliage has hampered my own long rides. I keep stopping to take photos!

Pumpkins

 I don't think Syl and I have missed a year.

Autumn has arrived

 




"Leaf Area"




I kept having to stop to take a photo during my long ride Saturday.
