| Stewart Pond at low tide |
Saturday was a perfect day for riding, so of course I spent the day lazing about the apartment. When the forecast calls for rain on a Sunday, that's when I roll!
And I'm very glad I did, for I had a wonderful ride that had me stopping time and time again for just one more picture. That to me is the perfect ride, and fall on the Island brings with it an incredible beauty that awes me every time I experience it. That, and being on a well designed 650cc adventure bike, and you have the perfect day.
More later, I'm off to work on a Monday!

 |
| It's an Eagle, one of four I saw on my ride today. |
 |
| Blueberry fields in October |
 |
| This road pretty much leads to potato fields and provincial parks |
 |
| The boardwalk leads you through the sensitive dunes to the beach on the East shore of the Provincial park |
 |
| These wind swept pines had me reminiscing about my trip to Newfoundland |
 |
| Gazing out towards the dunes from the boardwalk |
 |
| There is so much more colour at this time of year |
 |
| The grass keeps this sand in place, otherwise it gets blown further inland |
 |
| Are they rose hips? |
 |
| Route 16 is a fairly fast run with sweeping curves and beautiful fall colours |
 |
| Don't kid yourself, as I cropped out the fish factory to make it look isolated like this. |
 |
| The camera barely captured the ocean in the distance |
 |
| Priest Pond Creek |
 |
| Campbell Campground off of Route 16. Oceanside camping |
 |
| East Point lighthouse |
 |
| The Pirate Cafe is closed as of today, and i watched the last bowl of chowder being served up as i sipped my coffee |
 |
| The Isle de Madeleine ferry out from Souris |
 |
| If you want the following shots, you have to climb down this |
 |
| Yours truly |
 |
| This is what the sea does to concrete. Notice the rebar? |
 |
| The lighthouse as seen from the beach |
 |
| My fiance would have loved this ride. |
 |
| Getting back up to the top wasn't as bad as I thought. |
 |
| Basin Head Provincial park |
 |
| Perhaps it's stopped raining over there? |
 |
| Victoria, I'm almost home |
