Flowers on the Trail

Went to the office Thursday, and on the way home, I decided to head along the Cedar Valley Nature Trial.

Went north and ended up riding for about 5 miles before turning around. It was a bad idea--I didn't get home until 7:30 p.m. and Audrey had wanted to go to a 7:15 movie.

But, I really like that trail, and enjoyed all of the natural Iowa flowers--black-eyed susans, purple coneflowers, yellow coneflowers--in bloom along the route.

By the way, the movie, "Date Night," was OK. Tina Fey is definitely the dominant star. That woman has more comedic talent that just about any other performer I know.

Anyway, shown is a coneflower from my garden, but similar ones are readily viewable on the trail.

Happy riding!
