Morning Bike Ride: Wednesday

Another beautiful day here in Key West. (Is that getting tiring to hear?)

I went to Smathers. I thought I'd show you a different view. When I sit on the rocks and take this picture:


Here's what I see looking behind me:


It's a narrow beach, the main road is between the beach and that condo building. Today the entire first half of the beach was devoid of footprints. Weird, the truck usually makes a path, but I guess nobody was sleeping on the beach this morning, so he could wipe the whole beach clean.

All over the island these orange trees are in bloom. Here's one at Casa Marina:


And another in front of a house:


One in the cemetery:


One on Frances Street, where the first house I was going to rent is located:


One high up in the roof line:


And I came across these today:


They are the only ones I have seen in the yards here. I wonder what state buys the most flamingo lawn ornaments.

After my ride I stopped at the senior center. It seems that Don would love to have my bike. So I'll go back Friday and give it away. It's great to give the bike a new life, but sad to leave it behind.
