Many had already had their morning heart starter, and some were on the way. As we looked out upon the lake, Susan pointed out the train bridge on the opposite shore that was part of the bike trail.
We would be biking on that bridge soon, as part of today’s ride.
Before getting on the saddle, and after see ya laters to the group, we strolled around to peruse a few of the SOTF sites. Some Sisters go all out in decorating their rigs according the their era, some just decorate ;’-).

Susan especially likes this banner...
I packed up our lunch and we were soon off for our ride. We would ride across this old bridge on the way to the unpaved Iron Horse Trail.

Old...
After close to 100 years, the bridge is closed to automobiles, but still stands, even if some parts are..... crumbling.
Susan rides to the moon (look closely near the top middle of photo).
We so enjoyed this entire outing even if it was mostly on an unpaved trail. It was a different part of the trail than we had done last month when we rode with Shelly and Lizette. Here comes the unpaved part...and an unexpected tunnel.
Reaching that bridge we had seen across the lake, we see that the train rolls beside the Yakima River.
I always think of my friend John D when I see anything train related. I thought of you here John! You would like this trail ride.
As we came to the end of the trail, I saw where we had entered it the last time as it continued on. This portion today was much easier on me as it is harder packed with much less gravel and loose rocks and debris. Of course the shorter distance played no insignificant role my comfort level ;’-).

We came across these guys.
And I found this barn somewhat colorful.
This had been a ride in places we had not been and that is always so enjoyable for both of us.
A relaxing afternoon and evening at camp with a game of dominoes, some reading, and dinner brings us to the end of a most wonderful day.
