Warmer than it should be and cloudy, I turned out a bit over 33 miles on the PX-10.


So far the killer cow hasn’t messed with me.

On two occasions I had cool avian encounters. First was a swarm of red-winged blackbirds exploring the action in corn fields separated by a local road.
Later I came upon thousands and thousands of grackles communing. It was unbelievably loud and beautifully so.


Maple sap is running in the northeast. Most operations use tubing nowadays. Haven’t seen buckets on spikes in some time.


All in all, it was great to get on the road.
