An Afternoon at Patton Lake


I spent a very nice day at this lake yesterday. Kathy recommended it to me because it has a trail around the lake that is about 1.5 miles long. It was a mostly clear and sunny day, although the temperature was a brisk 43 degrees. Being a SoCal guy I had to wear a T-shirt, sweatshirt, and a jacket to keep warm. I also sacrificed safety for warmth and wore a ski cap instead of my bicycle helmet. Luckily I didn't do a Sonny Bono into any trees!! So I got to get some mud on my bike and get in a little exercise as I did two laps around the lake. Kathy forgot to mention that the trail had a couple of hills on it so I also got to feel the burn in my legs a few times. She called me whimp!!
