Gone shopping

DonutsInTheMist

After a gap of too many months, I finally managed to get back up to Sandy for another important trip to the donut store & another baker’s dozen of shaken, not stirred, donuts. If I take the Springwater Trail, OR 212, then Orient, Kelso, and Bluff Road, it’s only 25.65 miles (41.28km) up there, which means that if I hustle right along (fsvo “hustle”) I can get there in 1h45 and then back home in 1h40 (or faster if I don’t stop to pick up locks that come hurling out of the xtracycle saddlebags after I hit a bump. But I did stop this time) which means that I can deliver almost hot out of the oven donuts to my family almost on demand.

It was cold this morning, but that’s not why the photo is misty – I’d tucked the camera into my hip pocket, so it spent most of the trip up there sitting in a small fabric sauna.
