This morning's outing was a strictly pavement ride on the MM out to Bedford. Not as windy as many recent days, but what there was of it was gusty. I thought I was riding into a gentle headwind outbound, only to find a much stronger headwind on the way back.

A few things of note along the way. Can you count how many dogs these walkers have between them:



I see six each. What amazed me was that when one of the dogs found something to investigate, as dogs often do, the others all waited patiently. No pulling, no barking, just biding the time.

The trees at the Depot are very close to peak now, maybe a few days to go:



On the way back I stopped to stretch at the Lexington Visitors Center, and noticed that the inspirational stones on the ledge outside the bathrooms have multiplied greatly:



All in all, a pleasant ride.
