Took A Ride Around the Back Roads

Has been a hot day. 93 F and sunshine right now at 4pm. Dinner will be done soon. In the meantime we decided to take a quick ride around the neighborhood. Snapped a few pics out the window. It was a nice ride. Saw a few cows and horses enjoying the weather. Always good to get out for a little while. Seeing nothing but animals can be refreshing as well. Enjoy your evening and weekend.

I agree! That's a part of why I don't mind my long road trips. Great picture! Nature restores.

@CarolDM I feel for those who don't get to experience it now and then. It's really good for "troubled" kids as well.

@TheHorse I do as well. Open the schools, not online, in person. It is very sad.

I like travelling round back roads too. Much more fun than visiting towns and cities.

That's good you enjoy your afternoon ride. It would be nice if you take a snap shot of picture of the animals.

@CarolDM You adjust your shutter speed then you can capture anything while the car is running.

A nice leisurely ride around the back roads can be very therapeutic. One of my favorite things to do to break up the monotony of being stuck in the house.

Hubs and I enjoy taking drives together in the countryside or at the beach. Lots to see and enjoy and occasionally laugh over.

I like the quiet roads, no cars, hardly any people and lots of greenery. Always recharges the batteries
