Thursday, Beautiful Day

This day started around 5:00am...coffee outside,cool with a light breeze.   What an awesome sight, staring at Chimney Rock.  My chef chose to cook breakfast out.   He has a new grill.   It is, well, I will photo him while dinner is being prepared.

Going to the big city, errand day.  The big city would be Scottsbluff.   It also has gorgeous mountain formations.  The North Platte River flows around the city.   Lewis and Clark followed the river during their travels.

Took a 4 mile bike ride early morning to the Chimney Rock and back.   Stayed on the paved road and not the dirt road.   Don't get as close to the Rock, but easier on my muscles and nerves.   Still working on my confidence with my bike riding.

Returned from our errand trip...101 in the blazen heat, with 14% humidity.  You know 101 in hot, with or without humidity.  We did not have the air on when we left.  Man, was our coach an oven.  We have 2 air conditioners, one in bedroom and one in living room area.  Both are running full blast... still waiting for cooler times.  We will be more careful next time we venture out.

                                                        Truly more beautiful than it shows


                                             Standing on the ridge next to Chimney Rock
                                                         Deep reveen seperating us
                                   We were about the same level as the base of Chimney Rock
                                               Yep, thats Tim, looking for any Leichtys
                                                         Check the dates for Ms Mary
                                          Found another marker for her on the Oregon Trail
                                                   Didn't realize they were the same person
                                                        Hillside next to Chimney Rock
                                                      All the landscape is so awesome
                                                      North Platte River in Scottsbluff, NE
                                                                     This is a wheatfield
                                                                Only, the color is not true
                                                            It was golden yellow, beautiful...
                                         Wish you could have seen the amazing brightness


Even with 100 degrees plus, life is good
Nite all
