Trail

A surprise change in the weather forecast spurred me to get out to the trail early today. It was my first trail ride since last November and I'm completely out of shape but it was great to get out in the woods. Lots of early blooming native wildflowers were popping up including some of my favorites like trout lily and Dutchman's breeches, plus small white trillium and the first leaves of some bloodroot. As soon as I got off the trail the clouds let loose a quick and heavy shower. Timing like that always makes me feel like I am awesome at planning. The only casualties were my knuckles from when a couple trees tried to play Ping Pong with my handlebars
