I headed south for my bike ride this morning, mostly along Main Street and Lake Road in Horseheads. But I did take a side detour up Franklin Street to the Mill Street Pond and the Horseheads Post Office before I got back on the Main Road.
I ended up at Eldridge Park in Elmira and finally found the dog park there. I'd been trying to find it for a long time. It was over by the ballfields on the other side of the lake from the main pavillion. It was smaller than our backyard. But then again, we have a pretty big backyard.
Other sights from the ride: A deer popped out of the bushes near the Holding Point ... a "Free" sign on a fire hydrant ... Some young guys playing cricket ... bunnies, gophers and assorted wildlife ... a cocker spaniel at the park.
Coming back I realized I was going uphill for most of the way back. How is that possible? Coming back from a northbound ride also seems to be more uphill as well. Maybe it just feels uphill because I'm on the second half of the ride and I'm tired.
Back to running on Monday.
Happy Father's Day!
