After a week of amazingly clear, cloudless days… gorgeous!!!…
I must admit it was kinda nice to see clouds again this morning.
Something more for the sun to play with this morning!!!

Clear skies… but surprisingly chilly & windy. Let’s just say…
that the ride south to the City was a lot more fun than the headwind coming back!

Another crystal clear morning with quiet ripples on the lake.

After two days of art fair fun, it was nice to kick-off my Memorial Day holiday with a relaxing sunrise bike ride.

It’s always a wonderful sign when the lifeguard chairs are returned to the lakefront beaches. A wonderful harbinger of Summer… and the fact that Chicago’s beaches official open on Monday!

After a crazy busy weekend of glazing, loading and firing my soda kiln… as well as glazing & firing a cone 6 kiln… and throwing a whole new batch of flower pots that I hope to get done before next weekend… it felt GREAT to have a few moments of sunrise solitude on my bike this morning before getting back at it!!! And yes, I “promise” to post more pictures from this weekend soon… I was too busy to post, let alone sleep!

A cloudy start to a very warm morning. It was great to finally shed
all of the “Winter” layers and go with just bike shorts & sleeveless jersey!!!
WHOO-HOO… Summer is coming soon!!!
