Beautiful Ride

Joel and I got a babysitter for the girl and hopped on the bike today.  This was my first time out on the motorcycle this season and I have to say, my butt hurts now.  Not my butt really but my inner thighs.  Yowza.  Anyway... we had a gorgeous ride out Cottonwood road to Cherry Lake, up Cherry Oil road to Groveland with a stop at the Iron Door Saloon and back to Tuolumne via Wards Ferry road.  Beautiful!  The Dog Wood is in bloom as is the fragrant Buckeye.  There were wildflowers everywhere! It's outtings like this that make me really stop and think about where I'm living and how much I really do love being here.
