Working off the Thanksgiving Feast

Yeah, I overdid it just a little on Thanksgiving. So on Saturday, Spousal Unit and I loaded up the bikes and hit the Van Fleet Trail. We started at Green Pond, and sure enough, Green Pond Tom was there. He was cosy’d up with some other riders, soaking up the attention and the scraps. We also got a better look at the fawn we spotted fleetingly last time. Mom was evidently in the brush watching. We kept our distance and used the zoom. You can see the spots on the back of the little fella (or gal).

We waited a few moments and he loped back into the brush. The rest of the ride was kind of anticlimatic, but the trees are starting to turn and it was a nice day to be on the trail.

From everyone at the Brass Bowl, we wish everyone a happy and safe Thanksgiving. Here is one of the foods that to me will always be synonymous with Thanksgiving: Green Bean Casserole.

Nestled between some trees and bushes is…..a little stagecoach. I don’t know why. I’m not sure I want to know. It would spoil the flotsam.

I must have walked past this piece a hundred times. It is located on the west side of New City Hall in the beginning of the Franklin Mall.
