Fall has always been a favorite time of year, and this year we are having a beautiful one. Like a lot of things in life I'm not sure how long it will last, but I'll hang on to every moment I can. After a couple of hours of riding, and about 90 miles, I turned back towards home and while cruising down Green Valley Road between Black Diamond and Auburn I came across a small farm with some baby Scottish Highland Cows out grazing. I fell in love with these guys when Tony and I were in Scotland a few years ago -- they have to be the cutest cattle in the world, with their baby face and their "bangs" and their fuzzy stuffed animal coat. In the Scots tongue they are called "Hielan Coos", pronounced he-lan coo. They just make me smile.


The sun started to go down and it got dark damn early as does this time of year, and it chilled off rather quickly as well, so I turned up the heated gear another notch higher and headed home. It was a short but almost perfect ride this afternoon -- and a rare one for this time of year. The only thing that would have made it perfect was if I had my little guiding light riding in my rear-view mirror as I headed into the sunset and home.
