 Rode over to Allen Station Park and back. Hot. Windy. I overdid it a little.

 Mustang Trail loop. Felt good today, and might be starting to get a little stronger.

 Mustang Train loop at lunch. Drizzly and cool. Actually saw two people at Celebration using the provided poo mitts to pick up after their dogs. There is hope!

 Mustang Trail loop. Perfect temperature, not too windy. Got cussed by one woman* and lectured by another**; on balance, I spotted a mama duck leading about a dozen babies across a neighborhood street, near Bethany Lakes park. I stopped and acted as duck crossing guard until they got to the opposite curb, then waited to make sure the little guys all made the leap up to the grass.

* Despite my verbal warning as I approached, she freaked out and yelled, "You could give some $*&! warning!!" She couldn't possibly have heard my response, what with the music blaring from her earbuds, so I just pointed to my ear and kept riding.

** As I rode off the path through the grass to get around her, her friend, their three dogs, and three or four kids on scooters and bikes, she commented, "This path is too narrow to be riding a bike on like that." Isn't it ironic? Don't you think?

 Mustang Trail loop for lunch. Windy heading south, but the return trip was (cough) a breeze. The tureen was in full party mode on their logs.

To the lady on McDermott who came to a dead stop, trying to let me cross at the median cut: God love you for thinking of me, but you're not supposed to stop, and if you were it wouldn't be worth getting rearended by one of those Sucking Unleaded Voraciously monstrosities.

 Beautiful day. Mustang Trail loop. It's a sad statement when my legs give out before my neck does, but I took it easy, enjoyed the view, and took a few pictures.
