Well, on Sunday 8/26 Tim and I got in another --118 miles for me, and at least a double metric for him. Mostly paved roads, though we sought out a few without pavement; and about 25 miles on the Delaware Canal towpath, which is not paved. Gravel, crushed red stone, or just bumpy grass... fun!

I took a few photos...

It was a beautiful sunny day, no wind to complain about, not very hot. Strangely, for such a bright day, we saw a lot of deer. Couple dozen, I'd guess. Also hawks, blue heron, goldfinches, and a couple of nearly suicidal squirrels.
