Sure, I may be burning the candle at both ends these days.
Working all day. Late nights in the studio. Little time to sleep
At least I still have my priorities right… Bike or Sleep?… I’ll go BIKE.
Especially when the sky treats with a beautiful sky show like this morning!

Another beautiful morning.
With a crispness in the air letting us know that Summer may be fleeting.

But another great morning…
with MORE free money found on the Lakefront!!!

Dark clouds early morning. Blue wispy clouds a bit later.

Lots of clouds. Lots of layers.
Lots of contrast between the low-flying dark clouds and the higher cloud mass.
Followed by wispy blue skies pushing the dark clouds out over the lake.

After yesterday’s crazy food fest at the Sandwich Fair, I really “NEEDED” to do some pedaling this morning. More clouds. More wind. But not enough to deter me…

Soon enough there was a red glow on the horizon… which accentuated the low rain clouds on the other side of the lake. You can practically see the rain coming down over there!

Clear skies this morning. Just a beautiful layering of color across the horizon. A fun contrast to the cloudy days we’ve been having. And a nice addition with the blinking red lighthouse light… fun trying to catch it when it’s on!!!

Soon enough the sun crested the horizon line and brightness shimmered across the water.
