A grey day in the Dutch polders.

Nice shots, Steve. I was in Wheeling a couple weekends ago for a conference. The colors were gorgeous.

Small world. I work out of Wheeling. Yes it was peaking 2 weeks ago. Most of the leaves are down now but still pretty enough. The dreaded evil white powder will soon cover everything with its deceptive beauty. Oh the evil!! LOL

More fall skies. Our seventeenth century painters would have had a field day. Me, I didn't. I just got very, very wet ten minutes later.

Local conservation area on Thursday - not on vintage though. With the weather we've had last week I was out every day at lunch on a different vintage bike. Great being out in shorts and T-shirt in November.

Another great day, cannot remember riding this late, last year there was snow on the ground! Did approx 100 loop, including some new/unknown road that ended up being 10+ miles of logging road/gravel. Funny sign off the logging road near deserted camp.

Still riding on borrowed time here in mid-November. The orange leaves are gone so I had to settle for a couple of orange bridges.

Those look pretty big for wild. Maybe somebody just forgot to close the gate on the hen yard this morning.

Turkeys are the new deer around here. We often see them, and now they are part of the road kill.

We have lots of turkeys here too. I see a gaggle of 'em at least once a week.
