A ride through the country

I treated myself to a lovely 50+ mile ride in the countryside today. The air was saturated with the intoxicating aroma of damp woodlands, fresh-cut fields, and honeysuckle that seemed to line the roadways everywhere. The bright green fields were spotted with every imaginable color: indian paintbrush, buttercup, cornflower, daisies, and countless other blossoms. The greatest treat of all: I saw a bright blue indigo bunting sailing ahead of me into the woodlands. Wish I could share it with you all!
