Memorial Day Ride.......

 Got up on Memorial Day and thought... How will I spend
this long, lonely day????.... Decided to go for a bike ride.
Of course, there was a problem with my back tire.... had to 
call around and find someone who could fix it.... had to get a new
tube.  Finally around 11 a.m. I headed off  along the new Murdock 
Canal Trail.  It is a wonderful trail.  Most of the way the view
is amazing.  And it was a special treat to have it pass by
the Orem Cemetery today.  The picture above and below
are from there.... On my way back someone was playing
"Amazing Grace" on the bagpipes. Very touching. 
 So grateful for all those who have sacrificed so much
that we can have this wonderful country
to live in peace and freedom.

 Beautiful view!
I went from my house to the Provo River Trail.
Kind of over did it for my first ride all year.
9.6 miles each way..... that's 20 miles!
The worst thing was my poor bottom.... need a new seat.
And my neck and shoulders get very sore from bending
over.  I really need a new bike.
