a beautiful bike-ride

Thursday morning James (from my quartet and Bible study) and I took a 10-mile round-trip ride down the Rio Grande bike trail. It goes about 15 miles from Aspen down to Basalt. It’s a very pleasant, well-maintained path, with a nice gentle grade (downhill out of Aspen, uphill on the way back). It was a beautiful day, and we really enjoyed each other’s conversation, as well as looking at the beautiful landscape and wildlife. Here are a few pictures from the trip:
