Adventures Along The New River Trail

 “Adventure should be part of everyone’s life. 

It is the whole difference between being fully alive and just existing.” 

 – Holly Morris

This was our view when we stopped for a rest on our bike ride (10/30/24).

The Hiwassee Bridge over the New River along the New River Trail.

It was a beautiful fall day! 

Autumn Bike Ride

 "There are two times of the year: 

autumn and waiting for autumn." 

– Unknown

I had never heard this quote before so I thought I would use it today.

I actually like all of the seasons, but winter has to be my least favorite.

I think that might change now that I am retired and don't have to get out in it

if I don't want to.

I took this picture along the New River Trail when we were riding our bikes

earlier this week.
