Numerous Backroads

After spending all day yesterday doing yard work and other chores, Bike man and I could finally get out today for a rode ride. We didn't have a plan or route, we just rode north. Spent most of our time riding Otter Creek and the town of Hay River country roads. The sun was hot today, but the shade felt refreshing.

Bike man decided we needed one quick stop to check out these beautiful red berries.

Not sure what this bush is with the red berries, but it stood out among the muted fall colors. All of our fall colors have faded now....it happened very quickly due to the lack of rain. We haven't had rain for weeks now so our conditions are crispy dry. Even my skin feels dry! We reached another 80 degrees today, which is not typical for October in Wisconsin. Sleeping with the doors and windows open is unreal for this time of year.....kinda feels like camping! (29 miles)
