Bike to the Bend

I rode my bike out to the Bend in the Road on a recent warm day - not warm enough to get me in the water - yet - but I did find a small handful of people getting an early start on swimming season. I was happy to see that the nasty nail and splinter-covered remains of a small shipwreck had finally been removed (after my having pestered various authorities for several weeks), leaving our town beach clean and serene again. I was also happy to see the dusty miller in bloom. It's the small things, you know.
