Today’s trip involved a paddle down the Allegheny River from Parker to East Brady. It was approximately 14-16 miles which turned out to be a solid five-hour paddle. As a side note: first sunburn of the season!!!
Thursday’s bike ride was down the Armstrong Trail, still very much along the Allegheny river, but this time south of East Brady. This was a pea gravel/gravel trail that was a little difficult to handle on my bike. Next time I venture out this way I’ll take my uncle’s mountain bike. I ran across an old mine that was creepy to explore for a little while, an old grain shoot, and of course lovely views of the river.
My bike ride on Wednesday took me along the Allegheny River just north of Emlenton PA. It was a stunning afternoon with new growth and a warm wind and birds talking like crazy. After a hectic day at work this was just what I needed to re-center myself and feel alive.
This last Saturday, we decided to celebrate spring by getting good and colorful. Inspired by Holi festivals in India.
Green Maps: Cool idea and awesome resource.
I’m definitely going to start a map for my own area.
Watching the May Pole dance this year at 4Q was awesome. Beautiful, dry, warm sunny day with cool people at a super cool place. A good weekend.
