Maria, Blasting wind, blustery and cold!
Hey! I had my first bicycle riding lesson today, after 36 years, and fell, of course. Never did learn to ride a bike in youth, so...
Finally got the hang of it, and we rode under huge Spanish moss- covered trees. They were as big as cathedrals. Took a wrong turn, and my supposedly brief outing turned out to be a VERY long ride, at times with winds pushing me back! And, had to pedal backwards to stop! That was the most difficult part,but I did manage to get back to the boat in one piece.
