Blue Sky New Castle




Biking
in
New
Castle...





on a
beautiful
blue
sky
day!





When I
started
out
today...






I was
all about
the
miles.






To train
for the
RAIN
ride...





I have
to get in
49 miles
today!





So

I'm

booking 

it!







Then
Nicky
calls.







She
is
out
biking...

around

the
Indianapolis
canal...









She 
sends
me 
a picture.











She
reminds me
that the sky
is
blue!





The
clouds
are
wondrous!





It's a beautiful
blue sky
day!





Not
to be
wasted on
miles.





Suddenly
I
stop!





I snap
a picture
of
New Castle
for her...






and
another...






and
before
you
know it...









I'm
snapping
at
everything!





Random
flowers...









in
an
alleyway







The
whipping
flag....






above
Family
video.






The
town
gearing
up...




for
the
4th
of July.







The
golden
fields...






out
North
of
town...





Fellow
New-
castlinians...







doing
New
Castle
things.






I
stop
by
home...






to
see
my
puppies...





Poor
Marshall
is
tied up.





I let
her
loose...





to
run
and
play!







Biking
on...






Back
by
my
hospital...









Lake
Louise...






Random
Leaves...







There's
my
office...





And the seedling
I planted
a few
years
ago.






Oh-oh!

Look!






I'm
losing
the
sun!






Just
a
few
more
miles!





a
few
more
flowers...






So
beautiful!





By
the time
I
turn...





My blue sky
turns
gold.





The
lights
go
on.












Back
through
town.







Everyone
stops
by
Family
Video...




and
Dairy
Queen.




The
flags
hang
limp
now.







Why
do
I
go...





to
Mississippi...







to
Wyoming





to
New
York...





when
there's
so
much...




out
my
own...





...
back
door?
