it seemed like a warm enough morning to ride the wing and go vote this morning, I didn't have much of a choice because the cage is at the shop.it was very cloudy but 53* out and the place where I vote is only a five minute ride from my house. I got there about 7:30, not many people out voting that early in the morning so I was in and out before eight o'clock. I took a few side streets over to a hardware store which wasn't very far away but it was still closed. I decided to go visit the white house from there

Nice photos and any excuse to ride is a good one :good:
seeing its November you are right. there won't be many more riding days and even fewer 53* riding days
 
the beach was pretty empty when I got there, I guess everyone was either still working or still voting

and there you are some fall pic's of belle ilse. the ride home was a bit quicker than the ride there seeing it was after rush hour. I stayed off the expressway and took the city streets. back in elementary school my best friend was Reginald raspberry, I ended up by his childhood home. while the house is standing it needs to be torn down, reggie was killed in his early 20's when the store he was working at was robbed and he was shot. it had been sprinkling on and off and I while wanted to keep riding I didn't want to press my luck so I came home

Sounds like you had a nice liesurely day.
Nice pics.
i thank henry for giving me the day off ( with pay ) to go do my patriotic duty :D
its always nice to take a ride around belle isle, it has been one of my favorite places to photograph since the early '80s steve and it nice to let others see part of the motor city
