Island East cycling event

You can tell from the mural on the wall that registration was taking place in a fire hall, Mount Stewart.
There was 86 cyclists in the this evening ride from Mount Stewart to St Peters, about 27 km.

About half of the cyclists stored the bicycles at the community center in St Peters as we start tomorrow (Saturday) in St Peters and cycle to Souris.
Myself and another TO drove to St Peters and cycled to Mount Stewart so that when we got back to St Peters the car would be there, we logged about 58 km. It was a windy day but warm in mid twenties and mostly sunny.

The trail is very open in this area, large fields and no trees. The sky was starting to cloud over as rain forecast for tonight.

The day was sunny with a high of 18. This evening with another TO, cycled from Kensington to Kinkora and back logging about 40 km.

Potato harvest

This potato field is in Cornwall, I think this unit is windrowing the potatoes for the harvester.

There was two units windrowing and the harvester has the truck along side.
I cycled to Charlottetown then to Hampshire on the Confederation Trail and then back to Charlottetown and then home logging 42 km for the trip. A sunny day in the low twenties.

Woodland trail

The other day I took a walk though the woods by the ball field, I hadn't walked it for a couple of months. It is obvious that there is other people taking time to walk the trail.

I went as far as the creek where there is a bridge across it, no water flowing today.
I had breakfast with the retired firefighters this morning and did some errands. I spend the afternoon in the shop. No cycling today.
Warm at 24 but light rain or drizzle all day.
