I drove to Oro Valley and rode north, taking in Catalina State Park.  Most days have had temps in the 80s and overnight lows around 60.  How much long can this last???  Alas, not long.

I included the OV Marketplace, celebrating with an arts and rafts fair.  Finished with 40+ miles.

East side riding always includes Woodland Road and the amazing farm images.  This miniature post was grazing in sprinkled water.

Hmmmm, just missed this, outside Sabino Canyon.  A deputy told me people would be surprised at how top heavy are SUVs and easily toppled. 

My ride included my favorite neighborhood on the east side with grand views of the Catalinas.

And my route included a visit to Aqua Caliente Park, an oasis in the dessert. 

Hard to believe but a few years ago a lightning strike ignited all the palm trees on the near shore but most survive other than blackened trunks.
