PIC OF THE WEEK - NANTAHALA RIVER AND THE COOL RIDE

On the sixth morning of our Reunion Ride, we found ourselves leaving Cherokee, NC and riding through the Nantahala forest.  We've been doing our best to stay cool while riding our bikes during one of the hottest weeks this area has endured, and these peek-a-boo glimpses of the Nantahala River looked very inviting.

NANTAHALA RIVER

While we were standing on the side of the road observing and listening to this beautiful river, we noticed a crowd coming down stream.  Holy cow! They looked like they were having a good time... and they were wet and cool!

COOL RIDE


Believe me when I say... I wanted to jump in soooo badly! It looked like so much fun, and it was so hot!  But alas, we mounted our iron steeds and continued on our own two wheeled adventure. Ridin' the river will have to wait for another day.

Have a great week everybody!

PIC OF THE WEEK - WAY DOWN SOUTH IN THE LAND OF COTTON

Saturday was a beautiful day for riding! Clear skies and warm temps (low 70's... again!) so Harley and I decided to head south this time for our road therapy. Instead of the woodsy, twisty terrain of the Talladega National Forest that we usually enjoy to the north, we experienced a more relaxing ride as we encountered the rolling hills and open pastures that grace our southern Alabama farmland.

WAY DOWN SOUTH IN THE LAND OF COTTON
We stopped to take a picture of this cotton field on Hwy. 29 in Pike County. It's amazing at how much this looks like snow!

Here's our future bath towels! LOL!

Have a great Monday everyone!
