Our Sunday motorcycle trip took us to Estill, Lee, Owsley, Clay and Jackson Counties. We saw the changing colors of the trees as they stood along side fall flowers blooming as if they had all the time in the world. The ride was enjoyable for the most part. It changed from enjoyable to chilly after we stopped at a Dairy Queen and I made the mistake of drinking a COLD soft drink. To make matters worse, the weak side of me chose to eat a chocolate dipped ICE cream cone.  I spent the remainder of the trip shivering; luckily, we were only twenty minutes from home.

Monday afternoon’s ride took us to Poosey Ridge and to the Kentucky River – one of our favorite places to ride to in our area. The view of the shadowing on the river in the late evening is a picture begging to be painted on canvas. Darkness began to cover us on the way home, but I was able to get a few shots of a  beautiful  post sunset.

Here are some of the pictures I took. I hope you enjoy seeing my world -it sure is a beautiful one.

It is indeed – except for the roaring sound of the motorcycle!

hehe, that’s a music that i could also hear with that landscape around me.

Haven’t found what motorcycle it is on your blog though, just curious.

Yesterday’s motorcycle was a 1989 Yamaha 1300 Touring Bike – it is nice and quiet and is my favorite motorcycle to ride. Today’s motorcyle – the loud one is a 750 Honda – my husband’s favorite motorcycle to ride.

Love the pictures. I think Fall is such a pretty time with all the colors. It was really pretty Sunday when we went to Cumberland Falls.

Sheila, I love the Cumberland Falls area. It is a great place to visit to see the beautiful fall colors. Maybe our next outing will take us to that area of Kentucky.
