Friday Five Plus One – 7-3-09

It may not have been the best decision I have ever made to take my bike to the beach bike path on the last day of a holiday weekend when the weather was beautiful. Yes, L.A. even has gridlock on the bike paths. But as long as I was there, I managed to get a few pictures without getting run over. And in keeping with holiday tradition, they are accompanied by poems. This time, haikus. More on my poor decision to go to the beach coming in the next post. Also in keeping with tradition, five pictures & haikus from my ride and one beer.

Boats sailing on the water

Come on bike, let's go

Are the Dead in town?

Kites soar in the sky

I wish I could be that free

Away from gridlock
