God Spoke, I Complied!

On this morning's bike ride God spoke and suggested that I stop by Temple Sinai and say hello to my friend, Jennifer.  Here is proof for God that I complied.  I'm trying to stay on his good side.

Traffic lined up on Date Palm north of I-10, 10-04-2011

 Traffic lined up nearly to Varner.

Big Nuts, 10-02-2011


Today's ride: 42 1/2 miles, Varner - Cook Loop + Indian Canyons, http://connect.garmin.com/activity/118650608#.  This looks like a foundation for a new power line tower next to the existing lines crossing Edom Hill.  I assume it will be connected to the new solar projects planned for the eastern desert  between here and Blythe?
