Not too bad for my 4th time out this season! (yeah, yeah...I started way late, but better late than never)

I rode with DH tonight....well, kind of. He starts out from home and I drive to "the barn", as we all call it. It's the place where the road turns off the busy main highway and onto some really nice paved roads where you may see 2 or 3 cars your whole ride. We go past the Heirloom Old Rose Gardens in St. Paul, OR, then around back across the highway and eventually over to Champoeg State Park. The weather was beautiful at 75, but the headwind on the back half of the ride was horrible. Usually hubby catches up to me right before we cross the highway in St. Paul, but today I rode most of the way wondering where he was. After about mile 12 I stopped at a local nursery and called him. Turns out he had extended the route by about 5 miles. And here I thought I was just whippin' along!

Highlights: Seeing the osprey nest with 4 little baby heads poking out
Lowlights: The headwind and the car full of teens that honked at me and almost made me poop my shorts!
