Adventure

I went on an adventure today. I biked down Russell Road for six miles enjoying the scenery, plants, and animals, and looking for a spot to sit and eat my lunch. After six miles the Russell Road and bike path ended at Three Palms nursery. There was what looked to be a sort of a path so I locked my bike to a fence and walked threw the grass next to a field. It looked like it was a spot where kids had hung out before because there was an open area with a few old chairs and random things. I went a little farther and found somewhere suitable to sit down and eat my sandwich. It was so nice to be away from all the people and sounds and buildings. Biking there and back it was wonderful to look out over the fields and see so much open space- the sky is amazing. It was fun not to have a destination and to just bike and enjoy it all. I saw a LOT of corvids, magpies are beautiful. I even saw some on the road with nuts, I assume they were trying to leave the nuts in the road so cars would run over them and the crows could then easily pick out the nut meat. So I saw where all the crows go during the day. I saw a great blue heron catch a tiny fish in a pond. And I saw baby sheep and big cows. Along with cactus and lots of blooming fruit trees. (Mom, remember the cactus we saw going to Rex's work? Didn't The Usual Rules remind you of that cactus? I bet that’s where her idea came from.) So here are a few pictures of my adventure. I bet the road is even prettier when its springtime and all the trees are green.








So that was my adventure. It was a nice overcast day. I have a feeling that it wouldn't be such a pleasant ride if it was hot and sunny. I was proud of myself for going and glad I biked 12 miles!
