Burning through the haze! We greeted the morning with warm temps & humidity… with a layer of haze hanging low on the horizon. It took awhile for the sun to work its way through the haze… as I could feel the temps rising quickly already as I was pedaling. It’s going to be another hot one today!!! Stay safe.

Another early start for another beautiful sunrise. Thought I should get in some miles before the heat kicks in… as we’re supposed to be getting a little burst of a heatwave for the next few days… starting today!!! The heat & humidity is coming… hydrate, hydrate, hydrate!!!

With a bit of a “chocolate hangover” from last night… it felt great to get outside for a cool morning along the lake. All the while knowing that the temperatures are going up quickly for the next few days. But I’ll take it where I can… beautiful this morning!!!

A little bit hazy. A little bit cloudy. And a lotta bit HUMID!!!

After a long week of glazing, wadding & rushing to get everything done and in the soda kiln… let alone the recent wildfire haze situation …it felt great to get out today for a leisurely sunrise ride again. Oh, how I’ve missed a beautiful sunrise!

clouded start to what looks like a warm & sweaty day to come!

As the clouds moved in… it was a rather windy & cold morning. Enough so that I even pulled out my heated gloves… thankfully!!! A beautiful sunrise before the clouds seemingly took over. My guess is cloudy gray for the rest of the day!

Another sunrise… another morning along the lakefront.
Always the best way to start the day!

A sweet Sunday sunrise. A little chilly, but a promising sunrise to start the day.
Looking forward to another beautiful Spring day.
