During our ride I still cannot believe all the trash along
the road. It is really amazing the crap
people throw away, but on this trip Bud light won the prize. I want to bet that some teenagers needed to
clean their car before they got home. It
is amazing to see what people throw out.
I need to do a week-long series on trash I see during my walks, bike and car trips. I should title it scenic trash. Who knows stay tuned.

Yorktown (8/24/2014)
It was a great weekend for a bike ride. The weather was unseasonably cool but it was
a bit windy. After we left home we first
did what we call the tour road, which is the tour road in the Yorktown Battlefield. It was a busy day there, lots of runners and
bikers. The sky was absolutely gorgeous,
clear blue with nice puffy clouds. From
the tour road we biked on to the coast guard station, where we stopped to look
over the York River at the Moore House,
a nice colonial house located on a site with considerable history. The photo below was taken at a small cemetery
near the Moore house. We parked the
bikes and went to look over the York River.
The other photo is looking over the York River. After our stop we continued our bike trip
along Wormley Pond, a place I have taken pictures at before (see my post of 4/2/2014). We biked a total of 18 miles, a nice training
ride for our yearly trip to Salisbury, MD to ride the Seagull Century.
