A Run Out of the Hill

Run
I believe this is Pine Island Run. There weren't a lot of these runs with very much water at this time of the year.

Old Railroad Bridge

CedarRunBridge
The bridge over Pine Creek near Cedar Run, PA. What makes these bridges so interesting is the angle of the beams compared to the bikeway. That is because the beams are set more parallel to the creek bed.

This Weekend

The west side of Pine Creek nearing its end. The Bald Eagle Mountain is seen in the distance at the "gap" where the Creek enters the Susquehanna. This is where I will be at the end of my 60 miles for age 60 on Monday afternoon.

One Week Left

Pine Creek Gorge to North
This is the north-looking view into the Pine Creek Gorge from the park. There in the unseen distance is the start of the Pine Creek Rail to Trail. Next Sunday I will be there starting my two-day 60 mile ride. Hopefully next Monday's post will be something from down there at the bottom of the gorge.

Two Weeks Away

Pine Creek from Bridge
No, this isn't part of the Pine Creek trail, but it is Pine Creek just before it enters the West Branch of the Susquehanna near Jersey Shore, PA. In two weeks I will be finishing up the Rolling Toward 60 along the Creek just north of here.

Puerta del Sol

Madrid
This is the heart of the city, the center of Spain. It is km 0 the center of the Spanish radial road system. This picture shows a protest in the plaza, but I liked the mix of colors and blurs and water.
