The wind today is blowing at a steady 25 and gusting to 35. I rode about 5 miles on an errand. Going out was not bad, but the return was another thing entirely. Needless to say, I took no photos.

It was a nice day for December 25 (as in low 50's), so I decided to take the bike to the local wine shop to pick up a bottle for tonight's dinner. The round trip is about 6 miles through a mainly...

The second photo in your 11982 post reminds me of a blizzard back in the 1970's in Ocean City, Maryland. The ocean froze (or slushed) for about 150 yards out from the shore. Ice piled up...

Parts of the Great Lakes shoreline remind me of the Chesapeake Bay, only I view the bay mainly by boat while fishing for Striped Bass.

I rode a little 12.5 mile loop that I take when I have other things that I should do (think clearing gutters and raking leaves). Wonderful temps around here and a few spotty showers early. After the...

We only have chain pickerel here in the mid-atlantic. But we do have striped bass, so I will be seeking those through September and October in the Chesapeake Bay, and November in the ocean surf.

Vonruden - That is a slippery looking dock in your second photo. Combination of high tide/high wind I suppose.

That ship looks like it may have been built in Salisbury, MD. Chesapeake Shipbuilding builds many smaller cruise ships and bay tugs.

Smart route to choose, and probably nearly as fast as by car on a workday. I saw the curve of I495 on your map near the Tabernacle - we used to call it Oz back in the day.

I'm hoping the 8 miles were not on Rt.355. We lived in Gaithersburg many years ago (when it was still a small town), and 355 was a dangerous stretch.

For the record, I like your ghetto cruiser. Mine is a Sears/Steyr with no fenders and the ugliest Wald front basket you can imagine.

I love the carny atmosphere of the Mid-Atlantic beach towns. That Sea Bright mural replica of an old post card is outstanding. Maryland, Delaware, and New Jersey have town after town like this.
