Still feeling a bit low myself,
I decided to invite myself on a little bike ride this pretty, sunny fall afternoon--
--just a few miles west on the bike path to Lilac Park,
a roadside mini-park established in 1939 along the new WPA-built Highway 100.
There's an old beehive-shaped fireplace there.
Also, really impressive burs:
It was cheering to have a tiny adventure. More are called for.
