I headed out on my bike today and what a beautiful warm day it was!
We reached 81°F/27.22°C and the trails in the park were calling me.
The wild areas running along side the paved trails are never groomed in any way and are very natural with lots of varying sizes of trees,
shrubs and undergrowth. But they do keep about 6 feet wide swath on
each side of the trails mowed. I saw no deer today but did spy two turkeys about 40 feet off the trail staring back at me. Were they just as
surprised as me?? First time seeing these fellows.
LOTS if cyclists, several walkers/joggers, one skater, and two
skate boarders. That will be all the riding I do for a few days
as rain is expected for tonight and Friday.
You used your electric bike, or a plain pedal bike?

Sounds lovely! We were that yesterday in Virginia Beach. Now it's
starting to cloud up with rain tomorrow and back to the 60's for a
little bit. Apple trees showing bud sign.

Even though we are experiencing Spring-like weather, more
snow is forecast next week.

There are plenty of things that have been bursting with blooms here
for months but then again, this is a sub-tropical climate:

What is the bush? It would work well at the side of my backyard gate.

Yep. I have low growing azaleas along the walkway towards the front
door behind some low boxwoods. They don't grow to be more than 3
feet tall:

It's an azalea behind a boxwood, like she just told
you.

There are many different varieties of azaleas that grow to different
heights and with different size blooms. This one is out front by the
corner of the garage:
