Yesterday's commuting was just the usual 2 miles each way on the urban commuter eBike, but I was feeling restless and went for a 10.6 mile ride during lunch, the mission of which was scouting for a location for our family reunion this year, so 14.6 miles yesterday. I keep telling myself I need to start taking a muggle bike, but the wind has been so high lately I'm just not feeling it. 20 mph yesterday, 25 mph today.

I ran the battery down on that bike yesterday and forgot to charge it last night. So I set it to charge for 4 hours as I left on the eFatty this morning.

Here are a few shots from yesterday's scouting ride:

A Mosaic commemorating Kenosha's sesquicentennial (150th) birthday in 2018.



This is the New Kenosha Lighthouse, from 1906. In the background to the right, you can see the Simmons Island Beach and Bath House in later pix. It is privately-owned now, and the owners rent it out for parties.



Simmons Island Bath House turns 91 this year. It was just remodeled last year and there is a nice concession stand and gift shop in it now.



Looking back on the lighthouse from Simmons Island Beach. I'll feature the Old Kenosha Light in another lunchtime ride.
