Hemmed and hawed all the early part of the day w/ wet pavement. Some sun came out to dry a bit, so I just decided to do a late-day out-n-back to Grapefield. Trying to beat the small green radar blobs and the skeeters in the RGUMChurch parking lot for disembarking. Got through Grapefield & decided not to climb, turned around @ 15 miles, risk that 1 old brown & white pit bull, but would be downhill there. Dog had sense to stay under cover. A few miles after the turn around, here comes the hazy rain down the valley. The Lord said I needed to get wet since I shirked the climb. So failed @ both endeavors. At least there weren't TOO many mosquitoes yet, not as dark as the last weekend ride. Got some good Mother's Day flower pictures to send to Holly, since the cats eat the real thing.
Snakes sure have a lot of ribs to pick clean.
