Rode against a pretty stiff wind today, otherwise it was partially sunny with big (and some obviously swollen with rain) clouds. The chorus of the birds as one rides along is just fantastic this time of year. Speaking of birds I saw a great blue heron sweep over the river and land on a tall warehouse accords the river. Those are big birds! Also of note yesterday they finally put up the support sections for the new bridge they've been building for the last 6 months. Been a long time coming and has closed the trail on several occasions, but has been interesting to watch the progress.
