Not a beach, the walkway to the beach shaded by palm trees, from our condo building on our recent vacation in Orange Beach, Alabama, right on the Gulf of Mexico.
A deck with wood rails in our neighborhood green belt.
My favorite dog walking route is in the greenbelt. Here we drop down into what I call “Shady Valley.” Nice respite on a hot day.
On my bike ride last week. This is where I rested for a while.
And this is a trail bridge over Mooser Creek. It never seems quite wide enough for riders approaching each other. The last two photos are kind of funky I know. My new bike cam only takes video so the stills are screen shots. I returned the camera and now have one that takes stills and video. Life is too short to edit video is my motto.
That’s it for this week. Everybody try and stay cool except you guys/gals in the southern Hemisphere, you try and stay warm!
Sunday morning I rode my bike up and down the west side of the Arkansas River. It was hot, and I was exhausted at the end of my 14 mile ride but I was happy. I had my trail camera on my bike capturing the scenery including lots of other bicyclists, walkers, runners, and escooter riders. Here is a collage of a few of the people I saw.
“The Vault” is a restaurant in downtown Tulsa, Oklahoma that was formerly a bank. It was a Mid Century Modern designed bank that incorporated rooftop parking and drive through facilities. It closed and sat empty for years until a local person converted it into a cool restaurant. They kept the circular stairs but they don’t want anybody using them. The restaurant has been in business for years now and is very popular.
I don’t know why the trailcam took this photo. Maybe it has become sentient and is going to replace me? Or maybe it has developed empathy and wanted to help me out.
There is nothing like shadows on a freshly mowed yard.
