Jan 25 Cedar Valley on bike and another sunset


Tuesday I rode the Cedar Valley loop.  Backwards this time so that I would be in the noon sun going up a very shady Cedar valley. I shouldn't have worried because the temperature went from 53 to 61 as I turned up the valley.
Wonderful smells of cedar, bay, acacia, and skunk cabbage. The first Narcissus were blooming near Euchre creek. Port Orford cedar were showy with new growth and even a few camellias were beginning to bloom.
The first of my rhodies has two blooms!  Frogs croaked and wild turkeys gobbled and clucked.

I crept closer but the turkeys bolted.
