Downtown Asheville, Lunch at Heiwa Shokudo

Delightful ride today with a stop in Downtown Asheville...

And lunch at our favorite restaurant, Heiwa Shokudo.

Our Harley, parked next to our table

Very pleasant sitting outside together. Steven ordered his favorite, poki lunchbox.

Green Asheville

Everything is green on the Blue Ridge Parkway near Asheville today. We are sharing the road on this beautiful Spring morning with bicyclists.

Reeves Cove Sunset

When there is no one on the road, the photograph becomes poetry and a love letter to the day. The sun is setting and we are almost home. (As usual, my reflection is in the rear view mirror.) Here we are on the final mile, Reeves Cove in Candler, North Carolina. I feel tired, but satisfied. A good ending to another good day.

“Travel makes one modest. You see what a tiny place you occupy in the world.” 

Gustave Flaubert

Good Day

Yes, it is a good day to ride...

Gold is the color of my spirit today. The sun shines like a holy beacon. The road again opens for us.

“Though we travel the world over to find the beautiful, we must carry it with us, or we find it not.”
