Another warm morning for a beautiful Friday the 13th… nothing to be scared of here!!!
Plenty of clouds with plenty of color. Just how I like it… colorful & dramatic!
Another quiet morning along the lake. With beautiful pastel skies & streaky contrails. Apparently, the “milky haze” we’ve been having the past couple days is the residual smoke from the Canadian wildfires blowing over the City?! Who knew?! And yes, “milky haze” was the weatherman’s term, not mine!
Pretty much clear skies & calm waters this morning.
Very serene for another sunrise bike ride along the lakefront.
A beautiful start to another beautiful week.
Definitely a lot of clouds this morning… with even more wind blowing & waves crashing all around! The ride south towards the City was great fun… thank you tailwinds!!! But then the turnaround ride back was a lot tougher… pedal hard. Luckily, there was a lot of “action” going on in the lake to keep my eyes on!
After a full day of being “trapped” in the studio firing the soda kiln & cleaning my studio yesterday… it felt extra great to get out on my bike this morning for a little sunrise bike ride. So hard to believe that today is the start of September… wait, what?! When did THAT happen???
A little warm & steamy already this morning… but it felt great to get out this morning to work a little of the lactic acids out of the muscles from yesterday’s race. Didn’t need to push so hard this morning… just a leisurely ride as the sun never quite appeared from behind the clouds.
After a string of cloud-free sunrises, it was great to finally a few clouds for the sun to play with! The weather this past week has been FANTASTIC… and it looks like another great one today!!!
Just like yesterday, this morning was still quite WINDY with crazy-cool waves crashing all over the place! The ride headed south was great fun… whoo-hoo tailwind!!! Then some fun playing with the splashing waves… almost getting doused a couple times! Always exciting when the waves are high enough to crash up & over onto the bike route! Dangerous… but exciting nonetheless!
Dark & moody without much chance for a sunrise this morning! Just a lot of clouded drama over the lakefront… reflecting on the quietly rippled water. Enough clouds to make part of the skyline “disappear” into the clouds.
