SICK, DAY 5 - MUCH IMPROVED
11 Mile Ride on the Mohawk Hudson Bike Path
Saturday, September 5, 2015

Slight fever when I woke up but it didn't get worse as the morning progressed. I still took an ibuprofen after eating lunch, so that I'd be better able to get outside, and felt well enough that it was worth attempting a slow easy ride. 


Along the way I spotted wood ducks, several herons, and an egret. The surprise was seeing a heron on the grassy hillside of the old landfill - I'm guessing he was hunting the leopard frogs that seem to be abundant in a lot of grassy areas near water.


  

  

All told it was good to be out on the bike again, even if I was slower and slightly more wobbly than usual.
